Windows Vista Sectets
By holding shift down while right clicking on a file you can get extra menus. One of which will be a command prompt button. It will open CMD in that directory. I use this for perl scripts I need to run.

To..

Copy As Path:
If you look at the above screen shots you will see a new “Copy as Path”. This will copy the entire file path IE: C:\File.txt. I would have used to use this to cd into the directory via command prompt, but as we know that’s not needed anymore :)
Disable UAC(user account control):

Or you can disable the whole thing in control panel.

Just type UAC in the search bar, and that will pop up.
Running Quick Launch Items:
Add items to your quick launch such as your browser - apps you use everyday. Then to run them click the Windows key + the number it is on quick launch.

Windows Key + 3 = Windows media player.

Disable UAC(user account control):
- From the Start search bar, type “Local Security Policy”
- Accept the elevation prompt
- From the snap-in, select Security Settings -> Local Policy -> Security Options
- Scroll down to the bottom, where you’ll find nine different group policy settings for granular configuration of UAC.
