Why is Windows always asking you for permission before you do anything? Since when does Windows control your computer, and not you? Those user account control popups can be so frustrating, especially when it comes to simple tasks.

Well, disable those prompts forever! Watch this video tip to see how easy it is. Simply navigate to your "Local Security Settings" by searching in the start menu for "secpol.msc" and select the "User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administration" option. It's probably set for "Prompt for credentials", but you want it to say "No prompt".

This works in Windows Vista, but the "secpol.msc" is not available in the Home Basic Edition.

The next big software update for iPhone is coming sometime in April and will include a Food section in Apple News+, an easy-to-miss new Ambient Music app, Priority Notifications thanks to Apple Intelligence, and updates to apps like Mail, Photos, Podcasts, and Safari. See what else is coming to your iPhone with the iOS 18.4 update.
