Admin and Non Admin Mode in UAC

When a program tries to run in Windows, it asks for permissions, which would allow a user to work with admin level privileges.

With Admin UAC permissions, you are able to Install programs and make system level changes on the remote user's PC. If the user says no on the dialog below, you can still see the screen but have limited permissions to make changes on the remote PC.



Non Admin Mode: You can control PC, but cannot remotely perform admin tasks

In Premium version, when the program starts, it tries to run in admin mode. User should allow this if possible.

When the program starts, if the user does not give admin access via UAC, or has no permissions, then the program automatically runs in a non admin mode.

Important Note: Due to Windows security, some features such as UAC elevation will appear to freeze the Viewer until someone physically near the PC can click continue on UAC Prompt. Reconnect on Reboot cannot be used with this option, since the user does not have permissions to install as service.

The Non Admin Version is a Show only version of your program. This is useful for end users who do not have permissions on a windows PC, and this will not trigger a UAC prompt while starting.


What is UAC prompt is turned off?

If the UAC prompt is turned off on the PC, the program automatically starts in Non Admin mode. See how to turn on UAC.
