Default ANS: "What's the deal with UAC (Windows Needs Your Permission scre

Hello,
thank you for taking the time to explain UAC,

Q: UAC is Microsoft's way of controlling my computer and preventing me from
using it!

A: This is 100% UNTRUE. UAC puts control of your computer IN YOUR HANDS by
allowing you to prevent unwanted programs from accessing your computer.
*Everything* that you can do with UAC turned off, you can do with it turned
on. If this is not the case, then that is a bug.


Then I think I found a bug... :
There was some files I could not access because I did not have the correct
rights...
BUT I could not even change the ownership of the file because I could not
access the file security properties!
The solution was to turn back ON UAC,
With UAC ON I was able to change ownership
