    Well, disabling User account control in Windows based system is very difficult but you do that easily in Linux with just few simple steps. Here is the step by step process to disable UAC in Linux :-

    Open up your Linux Terminal and type
    gksudo gedit /etc/sudoers
    and press Enter.

    Now locate a this line : %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL

    Once you got it, you need to edit this line and make it like this and save it:
    %admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL .
    Now close the Terminal and you are done.
