On Windows 7 the first account created is not the administrator.
Administratyor is a hidden and disabled account, and the only one with
full access to the machine.
To make use of it, right-click on an executable file and choose "Run
as Administrator". You need to do this in particular when installing
software.
Turning off User Account Control reduces, but does not eliminate, the
need for this.
Some software simply will not run properly with UAC turned on - one
thing that doesn't work is trying to save settings files within
Program Files - they should go into Program Data.
