UAC-Enabled Operating Systems
The Microsoft operating systems Windows Vista and Windows 7 provide User Account Control (UAC) to manage security for applications.
The Enterprise Architect Visual Execution Analyser is UAC-compliant, and users of UAC-enabled systems can perform operations with the Visual Execution Analyser and related facilities under accounts that are members of only the Users group.
