I am installing a new computer. It has Windows 7 on it. On Windows computers, in order to modify or tweak your settings, it is often easier and quicker to go into the "Documents and Settings" directory, and various sub-directories, in order to find out what your application settings are, or include stuff you want the computer to start for you every time it starts up, or to have tools to hand in the "Send To" dialogue box. Windows 7 won't let me in to the "Documents and Settings" directory. Windows 7 won't let me change the permissions on the "Documents and Settings" directory. Even though I am, and am running as, administrator. (Yeah, yeah, I'll try and figure out how to do that once I get the ^#*!~(& computer running.
