Set program access and computer defaults has no UAC icon

Submitted by Ensign Joe on September 9, 2008 to Annoyance, Bug, Icons

If you choose "Default programs" from your start menu and click on the "Set program access and computer defaults" link in the appearing Explorer window UAC suddenly pops up and interrupts you. There was no UAC icon.

Add a UAC shield to that icon or replace that green tick with the UAC icon

I get the UAC prompt on my administrator account. On my guest account, I'm just told that I don't have permission.

Typical. bearluke goes back and edits his comments to a "." instead of apologizing and admitting he made a minor gaffe.
