Insufficient privileges? As an administrator....(And running the program as an administrator)

Ok I'm one of the users that skipped vista and went directly from xp pro to windows 7 pro.

I have some programs that won't run, or won't install due to Insufficient privileges.

Let me start with the basics. I have the same issue if I use windows 7 pro or home (two seperate computers) I am an administrator and yes with all of the safety issues I run as an administrator on a daily basis (you won't talk me out of it so don't bother) While attempting to install some programs I get the....this must be done by an admin...blah blah blah.....ok safety feature yay...so I run as admin, good as gold. Other programs, basically fail to run even though I did the run as admin...off hand that was the Aion install I had to work around actually just being able to run the autorun. Now I've come to an issue, with another game, it how ever installed....X3 terran conflict not that it matters much. So after being installed, I run the program.....bam Insufficient Privileges this program must be run as an adminstrator the first time. Run as admin I get the same error.

Now how many of you are thinking 'go ask the game programmers'? In any case...no this seems to be a consistant problem. And until microsoft does something about it....does anyone know how I can disable these problems and actually have my full admin rights as the sole user and owner of my computer.

Keep in mind I use both windows 7 pro and home so if the solution is different between the two I'd need both solutions.

Thanks for the help
