System? It's the effing windowses we're talking about.

What, open the folder properties dialog, add yourself as a user, give yourself full rights? That's not hacking, that's widely open to the user. C'mon, the so-called system allows you to give yourself the rights manually through the dialog, but doesn't give them automagically when you, logged in as yourself, create the folder. I guess about 2% of the cost of Windowses goes to the heavy security cost, which is fully awake 24/7, watching that no bit of logic sneaks in.

I did. Switched to Linux five years ago :).

> It's solvable the right way since, what, W2K? 21 odd years?

If so, how do you explain that the solution is not widely known, but instead, among the 60 of us regulars here, the question occurs 3-4 times a year? Even better, if there's a solution since 20 years ago, why is the problem still there in each new version, and solution is not?

Just for curiosity's sake, what's the right way, why is it right, and why is the above wrong?
