How to Disable a Remote UAC for a non-built-in Administrator

Additional administrative account refers to those accounts that are not default administrators. Such accounts are also referred as non-built-in administrative accounts. To import virtual machine from a Hyper-V host, you can either use the built-in administrator account of the Hyper-V host, or a domain account which is in the local administrators group of the Hyper-V host, or a non-built-in administrative user.

The user with additional administrative account can use the procedures to disable UAC remote access.
