In Windows Vista SP2
Some tools which needs UAC to be turned off and every time manually turning
off UAC and restarting the machine is consuming the time .

Question :How can be UAC turned off?

Steps followed :
Tried to enable the UAC from MSCONFIG—Tools and Disable UAC


Step 2
Open Registry Editor.

In Registry Editor, navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Locate the following value (DWORD): EnableLUA and give it a value of 0.
Close Registry Editor. You need to reboot the computer for changes to apply.
In order to re-enable UAC just change the above value to 1.

However,UAC gets turned on after restart of the machine and the same
registry settings were applied on other other machines ,which has not turned
on the UAC after restart .Only on particular machine registry settings are
not getting applied.

Please suggest.

To disable the UAC prompts (not UAC) AKA "Quiet Mode"

Navigate to:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
“ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin”

and

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
“ConsentPromptBehaviorUser”

Change the values from their default of 2 to 0.
