Oblivion IV screenshot

it's not "the application" that has write access to it's own directory, it's a user having write permission by default without elevation to the programs folders...NT is a user based platform, built around users rights, (as are all modern OSes) not application-specific rights, meaning it's the problem with a USER having write access to program directories, not applications.
Oh, you're right, I don't have write access to C:\Program Files. (never noticed that before :|) I don't really get it though. I don't use C:\Program Files, I install all my programs to F:\Program Files, to which I do have write access. Is that a security risk? Why doesn't Vista give me write access to C:\Program Files?
