ive ALWAYS done this on all windows, first time had a problem never ad a problem, they only say that for ppl who dont know what there doing, btw UAC littrly does nothing, to slow or prevent(HAHHAHAAHAHHA) hackers and other suck programs, it just slows the user down.Quote:

i like you be able to use my computer with full freedom, now you could say its not about that but it is to me.
And you got your freedom. However it comes at a price. The Windows store requires a MS account, if you don't use one, then you can't use it.
i have one just wont ever use the store.
wow, windows slow ya net speed down, distorts auido, and even lags... lol... next month ill be switching back.
Windows 8 is definitely not for personal use. I'd never install that trash on my PC for everyday use..
I have a good feeling about Windows 9.
I'm sorry
but what do you expect to go RIGHT when your using a phone's OS redesigned on a PC to be used for tablets.
If companies have to force a new operating system on computers to get people to use it theres a reason.
There's a reason why the admin account is separate...
Mainly because if everyone who used the computer had full admin privileges on everything, that would bring up security issues.
I'm not sure why you would think it was a good idea to delete the "user" account and just run with the admin one.
The store being disabled on the admin account is more than likely protection from said security issues, and I wouldn't necessarily classify it as a "bug" of Windows 8. Especially not considering it "broken" as some others have said.
This has nothing to do with the thread topic.Quote:
