What Is Uac Virtualization. UAC virtualization does not allow users to install applications that make changes to these resources; users will still need to provide administrator credentials to do the installation. Vista uses User Account Control and Virtualization to accomplish the security and protection.
And, Diego, you also misunderstand what UAC is. Virtualization is disabled for an application if the application includes an application manifest with a requested execution level attribute. The site owner hides the web page description.
UAC helps mitigate the impact of malware.
The User Account Control (UAC) has been a core security feature of Windows since Windows Vista.
The uac virtualization should happen no matter what as that is an os level. I thought that all users had full access rights (or do I permissions?) to C:\ProgramData so virtualization should not happen. The feature was first a part of the Windows Vista security system and has since been improved with each.
