  2. UAC shield on some icons and Chrome Icon will not open Windows 10

    Hello

    Since upgrading to W10, I have noticed that, even though I'm logged on as Admin and UAC is turned off, there are still some icons with the UAC shield overlain on them. Is there a way of removing them? The program icon in the Programs folder has the shield
    too so I can't simply replace the icon.

    Also, my Chrome icon is the only icon that refuses to open on a double click. Even though it is set to run as Admin I still have to right click and choose Run as Admin. Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Andrew

    UAC Shield

    How do I remove the UAC Shield from my Icons, while still keeping Administrator Privileges? I know what the Blue and Gold Shield represents. I know how to remove it from a shortcut if I remove the Administrator Privileges. I want to keep Privileges active
    but remove the Shield. Is this possible? Do I need to remove or disable UAC to accomplish this?

    UAC icon shield admin

    Hi XzDres and welcome to 10 forums. The UAC icon shield number is 78 but I'm not sure if you can eliminate it in the same way as the shortcut arrow but worth a try and if not successful try the tutorial below

    As far as I know right now, their is no way to remove that. We can remove the short-cut arrows, but not that shield icon.

    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. 30318
