I have a relatively new laptop and am setting it up. I created one local administration account and one local standard account for my one of my Laptops. However, when i log in to my local standard account I am prompted by UAC asking if windows command processor can make changes to my PC. I have not changed anything and have not experienced this before on any of my PC's and Laptops; does anyone have any advice on how i can stop this, or what is causing this?

Thank you!

You most likely have something launching at start up. Post a screen shot of the Start Up tab in task manager
  • Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc
  • Click on the Start Up tab
