I also finally turned of UAC, giving permissions to every file I needed to alter was getting annoying.
Yeah, however, it totally denies you any possibility to partition your drive as you see fit. What if I want to have one small system partition and one storage area so I can conveniently reinstall JUST the system? Or what if I wish to install Linux alongside my Windows? Any form of pre-decided partitioning, rights or limitations is utter bollox in my mind. Gimme my disc clean and gimme a DvD to install the OS with. Then I'm happy. Or let me run an OEM install where I can partition my drive as I see fit.
Yes I would agree on my own system I prefer to control this also. And there are still ways to change the partition with third party software.

But I prefer a second hard drive myself for data or OS
