Thanks.

However, all well and good, but this is hardly going to help the average user, as I said before the user doesn’t want all the hassle they just want to be able to use their computer, browse, etc. without having to take have a PHd in computer science.

If the functionality of this UAC Trust Shortcut (and you also need UAC Controller Tool v1.0) were built into UAC. But then if UAC was able to remember your choice. If the executable hasn’t changed since it was last used (MD5) then UAC shouldn’t challenge and these little utilities wouldn’t be needed (as it is unlikely the user will go looking for such utilities).

For such a small utilities, they need .net framework 4.0, this really is overkill to try and make UAC more user friendly. I have been trying to keep .net framework off my win7 netbook.
