The problem (at least, my problem with Vista) was that programs can't extract or copy files to folders within, for example, Program Files, unless you run them as admin. It's pretty stupid IMO. Hence why I tried to avoid using Program Files under Vista and instead either installed everything to the C:\ root or C:\Games\... Makes things messy but a lot more comfortable to use.

Don't know the deal is with Windows 7, everything in Program Files is working for me so far but haven't played games like Prey.
