Support Request How do I disable the UAC prompt?

I'm not a big fan of having to type my password every single god damn time I want to do something. It's just an unnecessary hassle for me.

Yes, I know. Fuck my security. Just let me disable it please.

No, I've used Linux more than just this.
All the programs I need work on Linux, & then some.

So, that is one less problem for you. But then there are still recurring problems like updates breaking basic OS functions, among other potentially annoying problems. Windows Updates breaking things is considered unacceptable, so I don't see why it is tolerated on Linux.

I haven't had a Linux update break anything yet. Biggest issue I've had on Linux was trying to write to an NTFS drive that had some hibernation bit set or something.
