"sets the degree of annoyance"

I can't help it. That line really cracked me up. I just recently set up a
number of Win7 machines for the first time. And I truly was nagged.

Yes. It was the constantly nagging software popup that turned off so
many users in Vista. "Do you want to install this..." "Do you want this

the Internet..."

You can turn off UAC in Control Panel--> User Accounts and click on the
"Change User Account Control Settings" link. There is a slider bar that
sets the degree of annoyance or you can turn it off completely (forcing
a reboot).

No wait!! It finally loaded and is running. Not sure *why* it took
so long to load once UAC was enabled. But, it's running...

I re-enabled UAC and RDp basically hung on startup so UAC, at least in
my case, seems to be the source of the problem.

Oddly enough, I had it working to the point where it would launch
before.

You could change the shortcut so it just launches as administrator
Setting it to XP compatibility mode seems to be working.

but it sounds like you are trying to get to the bottom of the
problem, rather than use a workaround...
Yeah, pretty much ... but I'm not going to waste a lot more time on it.

IMO, it *SHOULD* work. But, then again, a lot of things SHOULD work.
