Windows 10: UAC logs to check why Application was Blocked?

Where can I check all the UAC logs that were blocked?
I checked in the Event Viewer under all the Windows logs but did not find anything that had to do with UAC blocking an application. Is there a way to check these logs?

Thanks!

Grant a specific application permanent UAC permission

Hello jaksps,

In line with your concern, User Account Control doesn't have a "allowed-or-blocked" list and disabling the User Account Control involves security risks. Though, there is a workaround to run a program without UAC prompt using Task Scheduler. I'd recommend
performing the steps suggested by SpiritX MS MVP in this
thread.

Looking forward to your response.

Regards.

 

Windows 10 UAC problems

Hi,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

I suggest you to disable the UAC-(Select the bar as shown in the below screen shot) and check with the issue. To open User account control settings, follow the steps:

• Click on the search bar on the taskbar.
• Type User account control settings.

Hope it helps.

 

UAC is blocking the installation of a external wireless netword card driver sw that previously was running with no problems at all

Hello Lourenco,

Thank you for keeping us posted on the status of the issue.

We appreciate the time and effort you have put in to resolve the issue. I would like to assist you further from here.

As an initial recommendation, I would suggest you to check if the User Account you are logged in is the Administrator account or not. Follow the below steps.

• Press the Windows key and R from the keyboard to open the Run Command Dialog Box.
• Enter netplwiz to open the
  Advanced User Accounts Control Panel which lists all the users accounts created on a computer.

However, if you are the administrator, I would suggest you to disable the User Account Control. Follow the below steps and check with the results.

• Type in UAC in the Search Bar and select Change User Account Control Settings.
• Under User Account Control settings, drag the slider down to Don't notify me when I make changes to the Windows settings.
• Reboot your computer before the changes take effect.

UAC Turn Off Disclaimer:

User Account Control (UAC) can help you prevent unauthorized changes to your computer. It works by prompting you for permission when a task requires administrative rights, such as installing software or changing settings that affect other users. We
don't recommend turning User Account Control off. If you do turn it off, you should turn it back on as soon as possible.

Hope the above information is helpful. If you need further information feel free to write to us and we woud be happy to help you.

Thank You.
