Hello,

I have a question about Windows 10 UAC. Is UAC in Windows 10 improved enough to prevent all malware execution? For better security, does a user still need to change the Windows user account to a Standard (Limited) account and use Software Restriction Policies?

Thanks.

Absolutely not. Not all operations require Administrator privileges.

Thanks.

Why use "Software Restriction Policies"? To prevent YOU from running applications? What prevents your brain from not running applications you don't want to be ran?

It wasn't improved. They even messed up sysprep again. Switch to Linux asap. Windows10 is fucked up with built-in spyware and stupid marketing.

Thank you EP_X0FF and TETYYSs for your replies.

I will give the Linux distro Qubes OS a try.
