OS
Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 64-bit 22631 Multiprocessor Free
Windows 11 / Ver. 24H2 (OS Build 26.100.3775)
PowerToys (Peview) x64 / v. 0.90.1

In Windows, sometimes I would like to disable all securities in the system, finish what I need to do, and turn it all back again.
Just wondering is PowerToys has something to Disable / Enable all securities in the system ?
Or, disable all securities, save that state, when done, enable it back on.

Cheers

If you’re a little more specific about what security settings you’re referring to, we might be better able to help you.

Are your referring to UAC Security/Permission?

The short answer is no, and that's a good thing. That would be a huge security risk if you just disable all safeguards that easily. If you have a specific use case please provide some details.
