    Anniversary update and User Account Control (UAC) window


    Hello.
    I have update my windows 10 with anniversary update.
    But when a sofware needs to be runned as administator and UAC window appears, it is at second level and so it is hidden.
    I have to press "alt tab" to view it at firt level.
    Is there a way to fix?
    Thanks

    :)

    A lot of users erroneously disable UAC (User Account Control) in Control Panel - Accounts, to stop the UAC dialog popping up every time they access a strange file or application. What they do not know disabling UAC causes Windows Store and most of the Windows
    Apps not to work and certainly stops Windows Apps updating.

    Anniversary update and User Account Control (UAC) window

    I am an IT administrator and this new behavior is making my life miserable. On ten different computers, I have found myself waiting for an installation to complete, while the UAC window "hides" behind everything else. You don't see an icon in the taskbar, you don't see a window when you cycle through alt-tab, but when you let go of ALT and TAB - bingo! - the UAC windows appears.

    I do not want this feature.

    Amen to THAT. I rolled back Anniversary because of this and other irritations. I've already commented about this on Insider. I'm glad that there is some place to post for MS to see when a feature isn't up to par, and there have been a lot of these issues lately.
