[QUOTE="_CyberGhosT_, post: 521460, member: 39208"] VoodooShield, in my opinion is more fool proof than UAC when it comes protecting the Win10 environment. as I mentioned before some malicious payloads can bypass UAC and we have recently seen this inaction in one of Cruelsis's videos, there are more vid's to support this than just hers. VoodooShields team is aware of this and have been for some time, hence the suggestion of turning off UAC when VS is present. "For me" I trust VS a little more than I trust UAC, some swear it's the end all be all of protection for Windows (UAC), I recognize it's importance, but in that I also recognize it's short comings. I guess I just feel that with UAC disabled and VS in charge I am in a better place security wise. Now that is just how I feel, others will feel the opposite but I have been running VS from the first Beta with little or no UAC and had zero issues, and it has been a about 2 or 3 yrs now so there has been plenty of time for me to "pay" for this decision, dont get me wrong at first I was petrified having UAC off, I would visit the toggle in UAC control contemplating often my choices, as time passed I became more comfortable leaving it off, and the boogey man never came :) Thanks for asking brother.
