Microsoft: Don’t Misunderstand UAC, Other Vista Features

A Microsoft posting attempted to explain the most ‘misunderstood’ features of Vista: UAC, Image Management, Display Driver Model, Windows Search, and 64-bit architecture.

In its continued attempt to convince business customers to adopt Vista, Microsoft has outlined and tried to explain some of what it calls the OS’s most “misunderstood” features in a document posted to — then mysteriously removed from — its Web site this week.

In the document, “Five Misunderstood Features in Windows Vista,” Microsoft lists what it believes are five features of Vista that “cause confusion” and “slow Windows Vista adoption” for most users. The company identified User Account Control, Image Management, Display Driver Model, Windows Search, and 64-bit architecture as features that are flummoxing IT professionals when they install Vista across desktops on a network. It offered tips for how to deal with common problems.
