    Anyone figure out how to get rid of that UAC Shield icon?


    Has anyone figured out how to get rid of that annoying UAC shield icon Windows 10 likes to randomly put on shortcuts? I know I could shut UAC off but the second I do stuff like personalize starts throwing a built-in admin error, and such. There has to be a way somehow.

    :)

  3. anyone figure out how to get the built in camera to work in windows 10?

    Hi Yankee,

    We appreciate all the troubleshooting steps that you have performed. Since the issue still persists on your Camera app, we need to know the answers to the following questions:

    • When did the issue start?
    • Have you made any changes on your system?
    • Have you performed an update on your Windows?
    • Are you getting any error messages or codes when you launch the camera app? If yes, can you send us a screenshot?

    The information that you'll provide will help us isolate the issue.

    We'll be waiting for your response.

    Its not letting me copy it to system32 at all, like I try but nothing happens. Nevermind I had to have it the exact same name, however I did uncheck read only on system32 folder.. should I worry about this?
