Windows 7 UAC and the problem of ASUS EP4-engine on user accounts.

[mrhertz]

Since i use an ASUS motherboard, i need to keep EPU-4 engine working all the time (it regulates the system consumption)

But i created an account for my sister, then i locked mine with a password, and now everytime she logs in, the epu asks for my password (im the admin, shes an user), so i dont know what to do to disable uac just on that program.

My goal is to keep my account with its password, and make EPU-4 soft to run after her login without asking her any pass, cuz otherwise she wont get it running, and the cpu fan will go 1000 rpms more.

What must i do to unlock UAC just for that program? I tries giving her all permission i could, but nithing happened, it still asks for a password.


Please help me, i dig in a lot of sites, and no one had the answer.

Please help me.

To allow the EPU-4 Engine to run without prompting for a password when your sister logs in, you can set up a task in Task Scheduler to run with the highest privileges. This will enable the program to run without requiring administrative permissions each time. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this: 1. Create a Task in Task Scheduler: - Press Win + R, type taskschd.msc, and hit Enter to open Task Scheduler. - Click on Create Task in the Actions panel on the right. - In the General tab: - Name the task (e.g., "EPU-4 Engine No UAC"). - Check the box for Run with the highest privileges. - Go to the Triggers tab and click New. - Choose At login from the drop-down menu. - In the Actions tab, click New. - Set the action to start a program. - Browse and select the EPU-4 Engine executable. - Go to the Conditions tab and uncheck Start the task only if the computer is on AC power. - Click OK to save the task. 2. Configure Security Options: - Right-click on the task you created in Task Scheduler and select Properties. - In the Security Options section, set the Security options drop-down menu to Run only when the user is logged on. 3. Grant Necessary Permissions: - Ensure your sister's account has read and execute permissions on the EPU-4 Engine application. To do this: - Right-click on the EPU-4 Engine executable. - Go to Properties > Security tab > Edit. - Add her user account and grant Read & Execute permissions. - Apply the changes. By following these steps, the EPU-4 Engine should run without asking for a password when your sister logs in. This setup allows the program to run with the highest privileges granted by Task Scheduler. If you encounter any issues during this process or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
