Hi Group,
OS Windows 7 64bit
User login on, is local admin
for an installation, which should be started by means of the login script, the UAC Settings should be disabled.
To achive this, it should be possible to deactivate uac through changing a registry key.
The user, beeing local admin, can change the registry manualy.
I use following code:
$Key=("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System")
$Val=("EnableLUA")
$Type=("REG_DWORD")
$Entry = ReadValue($Key,$Val)
? $Entry
IF $Entry = 1
$NewEntry= 0
WriteValue($Key, "$Val", $NewEntry, $Type)
? ''+@ERROR+' - '+@SERROR
if @error = 0
? "Value written"
else
? "Value not written!"
endif
--------------
? ''+@ERROR+' - '+@SERROR gives message "5 - acces denied"
It doesn't matter wether to UAC is only disabled after reboot. Users log on often and I can check the settings everytime the users log in. After installation I want to switch UAC on again
Help is very welcome!
Best Regards Georg

ok, i can see your point.
but would there be a way to change the registry key, even though it is not recommended?
regards
Georg

There are also a number of errors in the code you posted. Extra ()'s for example, and a missing Endif.
$Key="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System"
$Val="EnableLUA"
$Type="REG_DWORD"
$Entry = ReadValue($Key,$Val)
? $Entry
IF $Entry = 1
$NewEntry= 0
$nul = WriteValue($Key, $Val, $NewEntry, $Type)
? ''+@ERROR+' - '+@SERROR
If @error = 0
? "Value written"
Else
? "Value not written!"
Endif
Endif
