Sorry Juh, I was trying to conceal the fact I had forgotten how to raise the privileges box. I'm being a bit slow I know but it's getting near bedtime!!!!
I do appreciate the effort evryone is making - don't give up on me please.
'YES' button on UAC prompt is absent.

There are lots of questions on this on line but no answers which actually work.
The problem is that I was trying to fine a way of saving config files in Microsoft FSX. Everytime I got a 'you're not permitted' response. Then an emergency cropped up and I left what I was doing. When I returned it seemed the PC had decided to do its own thing but I now believe it did a windows update.
The result was that whenever I want to do anything the UAC prompt appears asking me if I really want to. The trouble is the 'YES@ button has disappeared and no offered cure works because the UAC Prompt appears when I try - minus the 'Yes' button so the only option is 'NO'!.
I'm STUCK. Does anyone have a solution that really works - I can't even do a system restore.

Can you confirm the current version and build of Windows 10. Type winver in Search and select the top result. post back the version and build in full. Or a screenshot.
