UAC not showing

[EvilFlash]

Hi,
Recently, my pendrive got infected with virus, so I ran Usb-Fix. As I have observed before, it sets UAC to highest setting and turn all accounts into admin. This time something happened. Now when I try to open any windows setting, it dims the background but doesn't show anything. It completely blank. Please suggest something. Reinstall would be a last resort since I did it just last week and I'm not in a mood to do it again. i can't open regedit, disk management, anything at all.

You plugged in the infected drive to your computer? No legitimate program should turn all accounts into Admin! That is a very bad sign.

I wouldn't trust any system once it is compromised. Reinstall your OS. Should be easy if you just did it.

I got to know it was infected AFTER I plugged it in. As for accounts, I recall them getting turned into admin. But this time they were the same. Really nothing to make the UAC just appear?

UAC appears when someone or something is trying to change a protected setting on your system.

If you did not initiate it, something else is. That is bad, hence my suggestion for a reinstall.
