Disable User Account Control (UAC)

We recommend that you disable User Account Control (UAC) on any Windows Server 2008 R2 system that is used as the standalone server or NFA console server. UAC is not fully supported for the current version of CA Network Flow Analysis. Enabling UAC on the standalone server or NFA console server can result in unexpected behavior.

Note: UAC is not applicable to Windows Server 2003 systems.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in as a user who is a member of the Administrators group.
2. Open the User Accounts window:
   1. Click Start, Control Panel.

      The Control Panel opens.

   2. Click User Accounts.

      The User Accounts window opens.

3. Click "Change User Account Control settings."

   The User Account Control Settings dialog opens.

4. Move the slider bar to the bottom "Never notify" level, if it is not already at this level.

   UAC is set to be disabled for all local accounts on the server.

5. Click OK.

   You return to the User Accounts tasks page.

6. Close the window.
