Whenever you run some programs, you may get to see the UAC Prompt first. Only after you give your consent, will the program run. This is a security feature in Windows.

He may not have the following privileges: Adding, deleting, modifying a user, shutting down the server, creating and administering Group Policy Object, modifying file permissions, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>But a user&nbsp;with admin rights, can do much more than the standard user. The rights however, are granted after he is given elevated privileges for each level in one of the groups viz, Local Server, Domain and Forest.<\/p>\n<p>When a user is added to one of the groups they get extra power to do more than the standard user. They get extra User Rights. These are the rights or configurations that control \u201cwho\u201d can do \u201cwhat\u201d to the computer. When configured, each computer can support a unique set of administrators controlling different areas of that computer.<\/p>\n<p>There are over 35 user rights per computer. Some of the most common user rights that control elevated privileges over a computer are listed below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shut down the system<\/li>\n<li>Force shutdown of remote system<\/li>\n<li>Log on as a batch job<\/li>\n<li>Log on as a service<\/li>\n<li>Backup and Restore files and directories<\/li>\n<li>Enable trusted for delegation<\/li>\n<li>Generate security audits<\/li>\n<li>Load and unload device drivers<\/li>\n<li>Manage auditing and security log<\/li>\n<li>Take ownership of files and other objects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The user rights are deployed using Group Policy (Local\/Active Directory). This paves the way for controlling the access to servers in a consistent manner.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, each file, folder, and Registry key has an <a title=\"Access Control List Windows\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thewindowsclub.com\/access-control-list-repair-utility-for-windows-7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Access Control List<\/a> (ACL). The list provides standard permissions, like<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Full control<\/li>\n<li>Modify<\/li>\n<li>Read<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These standard permissions enable easier configuration over the objects. In short, ACL is a sort of list of users, groups, and\/or computers that are granted permissions over the object associated with the ACL.
