Windows 10: How do I make it allow us to hit yes, instead of signing in when installing a program.

I have a user that is an Admin on the a workstation that is being asked to sign in instead of just hitting "yes". I do not want to lower UAC as I want it to inform and ask when installing a program. I just cant find an answer on why the user has to put in credentials, instead of it just asking yes or no. Most answers I find want me to lower the UAC into non-existence, but I do not want this. I have yet to have this happen on any other workstation. If I make the user an admin, it just asks yes or no to install programs, not make them sign in every time. Let me know what information you might ne

Hi,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

I appreciate your interest on windows 10.

Before we proceed, I would like you to answer the following question:

• 
  Do you receive any error message when you try to Switch to Microsoft account?
  

I suggest you to follow the methods below:

• Type services in the search bar.
• Select Microsoft account sign in assistant service.
• Right click on Microsoft account sign in assistant
  and click stop to stop the service.
• Right click on Microsoft account sign in assistant
  again and click restart to start the service.

I suggest you to create a local admin account and then switch to microsoft account and check if it helps:

App Store sign-in error, 0xD000000D

Hi Suzanne,

There's a possibility that you are currently signed in on your computer using your local account. For us to sort this out, we suggest that you sign in with your Microsoft account instead. Follow these steps:

• Open Settings > Accounts > Your email and accounts.
• Select Sign in with a Microsoft account instead.
• Follow the on-screen instructions.

Once signed in with your Microsoft account on your computer, try signing into the Windows Store app.

Update us with the result.

Regards.

 

Sign in with a Microsoft account instead

I do in fact have an existing Microsoft account and if I go directly to Microsoft, everything works. The problem is clearly at Step 7 of the process of, "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead." I don't know why this is happening.
