Hi All,<br />
I have a user account in one user OU which has blocked inheritance in Group Policy. The purpose of this account is to allow visitors to login but there it is quite restricted so they cannot do any damage. We are using Windows 10 x64 Enterprise and for some reason when this user account logs into a PC they receive a UAC message relating to the registry editor. I have tried applying a group policy to disable UAC but this does not work. I guess there is a process running in the background which is trying to start the registry editor but something is preventing this from running. We do set the proxy settings via group policy preferences using registry settings so maybe the message is being flagged because of this process.<br />
Other user accounts in other OUs do not show this message so I am not sure what is causing this.<br />
Thanks for your assistance.<br />

Windows 10 also includes a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, voice-based search (Cortana), new security features for enterprise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games.

A personal computer is a general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities and price make it useful for individuals, and is intended to be operated directly by an end-user with no intervening computer time-sharing models that allowed systems to be used by many people, usually at the same time. Personal computers may be connected to a local area network (LAN), either by a cable or a wireless connection, and through that to the Internet. A personal computer may be a laptop computer or a desktop computer running an operating system such as Windows, Linux or Macintosh OS.
