Who needs uac when you are admin of PC in your home, you should know what you are downloading.
Its pretty anoying.
Another thing to add, even if you are an admin of windows , you still cannot change some things.

Because UAC stops apps from silently installing a random piece of software in the background especially when you have admin rights. People give it very little credit for what it does. All those people who might click one risky link and a file quietly downloads n the background to start loading what it needs. This is how people get the Ransomware virus etc.
Some of these are more tips on how to do something. I think Edge is a perfectly fine browser and overall is faster and leaner. I still have FireFox and still use IE for some things that don't work on Edge or FireFox. I will never use Chrome.
Theme colors and design are all subjective. We all used to like the default Windows XP blue task bar with a bright green Start button, remember? Now I think it looks like "My First Windows" for kids.
As with everyone else I disagree on disabling UAC. I think that should be an absolute power user only suggestion. The majority of people should never disable it. I can't tell you how much of a difference it made. Before UAC people would click any link and end up with so much junkware it was tedious cleaning up. Now they have a couple of browser bars that get installed with some other freeware. UAC stops a lot of the background installs which stops a lot of extra junkware from getting on PCs.
