Windows Vista and Windows 7 considerations

With considerations for Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating systems, the System Update silent
installation prompts a User Account Control (UAC) message. You can find information on disabling and
enabling the User Account Control message on the following Web site:

Note: If the UAC is active, a silent uninstall will not work with Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating
systems.
