Question

HI,

 

I have changed notifications from default to mid level, it wont pop up any window asking for permission and I cant revert back too.. 

Answer 1

Hi Nikhil, to change it back you can do the following.

1) Go to the Search Charm

  a) From Mouse/Keyboard you can bring your cursor to the bottom left corner of your primary monitor (the one with the Windows Logo) and select Search

  b) From Touch, you can bring out the Charms from the right side of the screen and touch Search

2) Type User Account Control and select Settings from the list

3) Click/Touch Change User Account Control Settings

Now you can change your settings.

Hi David,

 

My problem is not settings , the problem is when I set it to always notify from default and press OK, it wont pop up the permission window, it will only blink screen to black and revert to same!!

 

How can I pop up the permission window asking for OK or CANCEL.
