Why is it that pretty much every "copy, moving folder, renaming file" action,

I keep getting this pop up that says something about admin permission?
But I can click Skip or Continue to carry on with my action anyway.

And I only have one account on my PC, so I assume I am the admin.






Edit:
This is BS. Why the fuck is everything locked up. I can't even save files that I edit, saying my access is denied.
I have to manually right click all my files and click "Take Ownership" before I can save my changes.

This can't be right, is this the default setting for Windows 8?
To lock everything up so idiots that don't know what they're doing can't fuck up their computer?
I don't even think a Mac is this retarded.


Edit 2:
Ok, I just basically selected all my folders in all my harddrives and right clicked to the submenu and hit "Take Ownership".

I feel stupid that I have to even resort to this method just so I can use my computer properly.

(btw, I had to install some third party program to even get that "Take Ownership" option in the submenu)


I must be missing something. I don't think a normal user would have figured this out.

Is all the files SUPPOSED to be locked up?? Maybe this was a "new" thing since Vista, where OS have been catering
to more stupid people. Cause in XP (the last OS I was using), there was no such thing like this...
