Clicking Storage Triggers UAC Prompt Is This a New Windows 11 Feature?
Clicking on Storage in Settings now prompts a UAC authorization window, which didn't happen before. Is this a normal update behavior or a problem?
This is a standard security feature in Windows 11 designed to prevent unauthorised access to storage; if you wish to disable it, you can do so via the Group Policy Editor or the Registry Editor to suppress the relevant UAC prompts.
