Windows 10: Can't keep UAC disabled (never notify)

It's easy to do Enable or Disable UAC prompt for Built-in Administrator in Windows | Windows 10 Tutorials (Admin Approval Mode for the Built-in Administrator account = Enabled). It works for a few reboots. Then it's magically back to Disabled (and action center says "You must restart your computer to turn on User Account Control".

What's the next step to force this thing to stay at "never notify"? (And yes, I have strong anti-virus protection and everything, I'm willing to take the risk this setting brings.)

• Click on User Accounts and again click on User Accounts.
• Click on Change User account control settings.
• Provide password for the UAC prompt.
• Drag the box from Always Notify to Never Notify and click on OK.
• Provide password for the UAC prompt (if asked again).

Important: Turning off UAC reduces the security of your computer and may expose you to increased risk from malicious software. We do not recommend leaving UAC disabled.

User Account Control - Notification in Windows 10 Action Center "UAC is disabled".

Nyima,

Thanks for suggestion, but that solution doesn't solve issue that I pointed here.

I am completly aware that setting UAC slider to top, "Always notify" option will stop Action Center to notify me about disabled UAC. But that is not what I want.

I want UAC to stay completely disabled and I don't want Action Center to notify me about that fact, because I personaly put it that way.

So, do you have any suggestion how can I solve this incovenient issue?

Thanks!
