OK, you weren't running as a user with administrative privs
Oh, I didn't realize that I was supposed to be an admin in regular

You're not supposed to be, but if you want to avoid such things then you
should be. Also, the majority of windows software doesn't run properly
without admin privs, so i'd be surprised if you were able to do this without
such heartache.
And *that's* what they mean when they say, "Defective by design."
