Hi there,While trying to install IE9 after running the setup it stalls at “Downloading required updates” despite the AV being disabled……any clues?Regards!
IE9 needs UAC turned on to download and installTurn it off afterwards
When I said "turn it off afterwards" I was speaking to people who had it turned off anyway.I was not saying it's a good idea
Don't Shut Off Vista UAC, There's A Better WayPosted by David DeJean, Jun 11, 2007 04:57 PM One of the most annoying things about Microsoft Windows Vista is User Account Control and all the warnings it pops up to ask if you just did something you really wanted to do. Like, either (a) it wasn't you who pressed the Enter key, but the ghost of your grandfather standing at your shoulder, or (b) you really are too stupid to be trusted to know you want to install a program or open an attachment. The temptation is strong to turn off UAC warnings by disabling the controls, but that causes more problems, like making it even more difficult to do some things in Vista. Fortunately, there's a better way.
He's probably right, but the problem is you need a Ph.D. in Vista to figure out how to set the switch.
