UAC timeout
I have several pieces of software that take really long times to upzip and do preliminary operations before attempting to do the installation. Several times I have walked away to avoid staring at a flashing screen for 15 minutes (or because my bladder is only so large) to come back and find nothing! The UAC permission request times out, defaults to No, throwing away everything that has happened so far.
Is there a means to increase the timeout from the default 2 minutes to either a much longer time, or even to never? What could possibly be the harm? It seems that setting should be lurking someplace in the registry.
Thanks.
