**************************<wbr />*****<br />
Was really happy till I found the users cannot open the 8.1 store now or any app while opening up says 'This app can't open, Turn on UAC'. &nbsp; <br />
Is there a way to have UAC disabled but still use apps/app store in 8.1?. &nbsp;would like to control via group policy.
