You get a call from a user who has just purchased a Windows 7 computer. She was installing a PDF reader when her desktop dimmed and a dialog box appeared asking her if she wanted to continue. What just happened?

A. Her antivirus program detected malware that was about to be installed.

B. This is the default action of User Account Control.

C. User Account Control detected malware that was about to be installed.

D. She does not have permissions to install this program and must log in as an administrator.

Solution

As she was installing a PDF reader, or any Software and the Computer was Just Purchased, so the Reason the desktop dimmed and a dialog box appeared was because She does not have permissions to install this program and must log in as an administrator.

As the rights of a PC are with the Administrator and the Administrator can only change the settings of the Computer, or have rights to add or remove a program, these setting can only be modified by an Administrator.

So if a user is trying to add or remove a program or modify a System Setting, a dialog box will appear to Continue or not on the Users Risk. This is the Reason a Dialog Box appeared to the user while installing a Program.
