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 Analyzer is UAC-compliant, and users of UAC-enabled systems can perform operations with the Visual Execution Analyzer and related facilities under accounts that are members of only the Users group.

However, when attaching to processes running as services on a UAC-enabled operating system, it might be necessary to log in as an Administrator.
