Summary
This test checks the setting for policy 'User Account Control: Allow UIAccess applications to prompt for elevation without using the secure desktop' on Windows hosts (at least Windows 7). The policy setting controls whether User Interface Accessibility (UIAccess or UIA) programs can automatically disable the secure desktop for elevation prompts that are used by a standard user.
