The User Account Control basically notifies you before changes are made to your PC not all changes, but only those which require Administrator level permissions. These changes could have been initiated by the user, by the operation system, by a genuine software or even malware! Every time such an administrator level change is initiated, Windows UAC will prompt the user for approval or denial. If the user approves the change, the change is made; in not, no changes are made to the system.
Settings:

Notify me only when apps try to make changes to my computer (default)
Notify me only when apps try to make changes to my computer (don’t dim my desktop)
Never notify me
