. I had already set the UAC to its highest level before but that seemingly didn't do anything so now I have dropped his account to basic user instead of admin and I'm trying to set policies so that infection would be difficult. Go any ideas? I assume that a basic user doesn't have access to program files nor can it make changes to the registry right?

Locking a user account down.
Hello guys, my uncle's laptop has been repeatedly by scareware software. After having to clean it up 3 times in less than a month I've told them that the only antimalware software of the computer are MSE and Malwarebytes and everything else is fake and they should not install them, yet yesterday they got infected again . I had already set the UAC to its highest level before but that seemingly didn't do anything so now I have dropped his account to basic user instead of admin and I'm trying to set policies so that infection would be difficult. Go any ideas? I assume that a basic user doesn't have access to program files nor can it make changes to the registry right?
