There are a few ways to enable or disable UAC from the Windows Command Line. The easiest way is to use the command prompt. To start the command prompt, type “cmd” and hit enter. Then, type “netstat -a” and hit enter. The netstat -a command will show you all of the network connections on your computer. If you see a line that says “UAC is enabled”, then you can enable UAC by typing “netset uac on”. If you see a line that says “UAC is not enabled”, then you can disable UAC by typing “netset uac off”.
Update: This should also work on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, and probably 8.2. It’ll also work on Windows 10.
Note: Disabling UAC will lead to a less secure system, so be warned.
