How to Install DealerClick on Vista or Win 7
Make sure you sign onto your computer as an Administrator!
Step 1. Disable User Account Control (UAC) the Easy Way on Win 7 or Vista
Note: Disabling UAC will lead to a less secure system, so be warned. You should reverse these
steps after installing the program.
Disable UAC on Windows Vista
Open up Control Panel, and type in “UAC” into the search box. You’ll see a link for “Turn User
Account Control (UAC) on or off”:
On the next screen you should uncheck the box for “Use User Account Control (UAC)”, and then
click on the OK button.
You’ll need to reboot your computer before the changes take effect, but you should be all done
with annoying prompts.
Disable UAC on Windows 7
Windows 7 makes it much easier to deal with UAC settings, and in fact you don’t have to
completely disable UAC if you don’t want to. Just type UAC into the start menu or Control Panel
search box.
You can simply drag the slider up or down, depending on how often you want to be alerted.
If you drag it all the way down to the bottom, you’ll have disabled it entirely.
Step 2. Install the DealerClick Program
