I installed the Cron daemon running under the cyg_server account, and now whenever Windows 10 gives me a UAC prompt it defaults to asking for the password for "privileged server" and I have to manually click to change it to my PIN entry every time. This is extremely annoying and slows down what would otherwise be very fast interactions. Is there a way to revert this behavior without uninstalling Cron and/or the cyg_server account? And if I run Cron under my own username (I have admin rights, but UAC is enabled) will it be able to automate actions that require admin privileges?
