Windows 10: User Account Control - pop-up alert upon Start-up - how do I disable message that X-Rite...

Firstly, X-Rite appears to run in the background and does not appear as a Start-up App. I have X-Rite Color Assistant pre-installed on my Lenovo Legion laptop.

Try to login to your temporary user account, enable built in administrator.

• • Press Windows + X key together on your desktop screen.

  • Type the following command and hit Enter:

net user administrator /active: yes (Check for the spaces)

4. Now log off from the current user and try to login to the administrator account that is enabled.

Note: Please follow the same steps and type net user administrator /active: no to disable admin account after the troubleshooting is done.

  Login with the built-in administrator account.

  Press “Windows key + X" from the keyboard and click on
  Search icon.

Disable User Account Control pop-up

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

User Account Control (UAC) can help prevent unauthorized changes to your computer. UAC notifies you when changes are going to be made to your computer that require administrator-level permission. These types of changes can affect the security of your computer
or can affect settings for other people that use the computer. We recommend that you leave UAC on to help make your computer secure.



1. Have you made any changes to the pc prior to this issue?
2. Have you logged in as admin on the pc?

Sign out from the current user account, restart the pc and login to the admin account to check if that helps.


If the issue persists then refer the steps and see if it helps.

I would suggest you to set User Account Control settings to default and check, if it works.

1. Type User account control settings in the search bar, Then User account control settings Window will open.

2. Set the pointer at default in the User account control settings Window.


Let us know if this helps.
