Critical to the success of User Account Control is having software that works well for standard users and administrators, without excess prompts. Since User Account Control is such a central part of Windows Vista, User Account Control compatibility is one of the key requirements to display the Certified for Windows Vista Logo on software.


Make sure the application works well for standard users, unless it is something truly designed to be run only by system administrators such as disk partitioning software. If the program has admin and non-admin components the main application should still be run as a standard user and administrative features should be moved to a separate executable.


Executable files with .EXE, .DLL, .SYS, .DRV, .OCX, .CPL, or .SCR extensions must be signed with an Authenticode certificate.
