To combat the privilege problem of previous operating systems, the software giant gave only the administrator account full, unrestricted access to all aspects of the PC. An account with administrative privileges technically operates as a standard user account until an action requiring administrative permission is needed. At that time, the account temporarily enters Admin Approval Mode and reenters standard user mode after the action is complete.
Enable User Account Control Using Group Policy
We will create a group policy and define the settings to enable the UAC.
First open the
Server Manager Console and click on
Tools. Now click
Group Policy Management from the drop down. Right click on the domain and click on
Create a GPO in this domain and link it here. Provide a suitable name to the GPO and right click the policy and click on
Edit.
In the GPMC editor click on
Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > Security Options. On the right pane there are lot of settings that you see, so you need to modify the following policies.
1) User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval Mode = Right click policy setting, click
Properties. Check the box
Define this policy setting and choose

2) User Account Control: Detect application installations and prompt for elevation = Right click policy setting, click
