User Access Control (UAC) is a security component found in Windows starting with Vista and Windows Server 2008.  It allows an administrator to enter credentials during a non-administrator's user session to perform occasional administrative tasks.


More information on UAC can be found on the Microsoft web site:

This security component also causes Administrative users to run without Administrative Privilege and can lead to unexpected behaviour in XIA Configuration Server.


By default, all local server administrators are full administrators of XIA Configuration Server, however, with UAC enabled, you may see the following message displayed:
