KNOWN ISSUES
Starting with 2004 S1.0 and up UAC will only partly be disabled in S versions, as this will render Edge (Chromium) fully functional. This may introduce other bugs, such as the DirectX 9.0 Web setup bug shown here.
This is easily fixed by running the the setup in elevation (administrator mode), so right click the installer and hit "Run as administrator".
If you do not need Edge and don't run into any elevation issues, you may want to fully re-disable UAC. We've provided you with a solution in Workspace.
Default System Sounds remain pre-disabled in ReviOS. Normal audio works as it's supposed to, only the Sounds are disabled.
If the community deems this an unnecessary change - Revision will resort back to the original System Sounds in coming builds.
