    I've tried all the solutions I could find on the community page with no luck. This same pop up from User Account Control returns every time on my son's new laptop.. I've removed all restrictions that I can find. Removed him from our Microsoft family account, changed his age to 24 and turned off all internet restrictions, incase that's what it was. All the solutions just lead to another pop up with only NO as an option. So far they are from Overwolf, Steam, User Account Control Settings, and Advanced User Accounts Control Panel.. Please help.

    :)

    User Account Control: Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?

    Hi Josh,

    User Account Control helps prevent malware from damaging a computer. It also allows all users to log on to their computers using a standard user account. To isolate your issue, we'd like to know the following:

    • Have you tried booting up your computer in Safe Mode?
    • Do you have an antivirus application installed?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you change your User Account Control Settings in Control Panel to modify the Settings. Kindly follow these steps:

    • Open Control Panel and click User Accounts icon.
    • Click Change User Account Control settings.
    • This will open the C:\Windows\System32\UserAccountControlSettings.exe file.
    • If prompted by User Account Control, click Yes.
    • Move the slider up or down to the setting for how you want to be notified by User Account Control, and click OK.
    • If prompted by UAC, click Yes.
    • When finished, you can close User Accounts.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    User account Control

    Hi,

    Administrator accounts are accounts that are allowed complete control over a computer. They are allowed to make changes to settings, get through the User Account Control or UAC prompts to perform elevated tasks, and install programs. which is why in order
    to change the account type of the guest account into an administrator, you will need access or permission to use an administrator account on your computer.

    Once you have access to the administrator account on your computer, follow the steps below on how you can change the user account type of the guest account through the Settings app:

    • Click Start, and then Settings.
    • Click on Accounts, and then Family & other people.
    • Click to select the guest account, and then click the Change account type button.
    • Click on Standard User to open the drop down menu, and then select
      Administrator.
    • Click OK.

    Let us know how it turns out.
