But....

Maybe leaving UAC is fine as it is to remind you of where you are. As well, once a server is up and running how often are you installing or changing something on it [aside from user accounts and GPs]?

Great Info!

Thank you for writing this article. Very direct and to the point.

To answer your questions, Yes I am a fan of UAC, but sometimes you need to disable UAC on servers, especially when running shared applications that call other procedures using admin privileges. Thanks again!
i did apply all three settings but i still see the popup "You don't currently have permission..." although i am logged in using domain admin account
thanks for the GPO and info happy, personally, i will stop the UAC on servers and keep it on clients
