UAC consent message

Hi,

when UAC is on, every time a user (even an Admin) start a new process
that needs to run elevated, the user gets UAC consent dialog, where
the OS asks permission to give the process admin privileges. If the
user approves, the process will start with elevated privileges,
otherwise it will be blocked.
Through settings, even keeping UAC on, the UAC consent dialog can be
avoided, so that the user is not asked for consent when a new process
that needs admin privileges starts.
I'd like to know if, in this last scenario (with UAC on but the UAC
consent dialog off), still there is a place in the system (a .log ?)
where the info about the automatic elevation if the priviliges is
saved.
Basically, I'd like to avoid the user being asked for elevation, but
I'd like to know if that automatic elevation happened.
Thanks

UAC stores its logs in:

Application and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> UAC

Not sure if it logs the event you are wanting, you might try it and see.
