[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 778604, member: 32260"] No elevation on SUA is another UAC setting (ConsentPromptBehaviorUser = 0). It applies on all SUA accounts the requirement of no elevation to all processes started on SUA. So, it will block also the signed processes started on SUA. Of course, all processes started as administrator are not blocked, like system scheduled tasks, Windows updates, Microsoft Store updates. Any user can be infected, like any driver can be killed in the traffic accident. The chances of infection depend mostly on the users' actions and habits. The user, who applies cracks & pirated software or click everything, is like the driver who kiss his/her lover while driving. To be safer when kissing, the driver can buy a car with 15 air bags and the ejection seat with parachute (AV + ATP), or driving in the desert (highly restricted system). But usually, the seat belts (free good AV) and the reasonable actions are considered to be sufficient (but not 100% safe). If the user has to engage in the risky actions, then the paid AV with ATP or restricted setup is necessary, alongside with the reasonable counter-actions. [/QUOTE]
