    One day I'm going to find out the hidden meaning of that...
    Ever played a game called Mortal Kombat Kari? Might solve the question at hand

    I'll you what I don't like... the personalization menu. It doesn't make any sense. When you change some part of the current theme, it assumes you want to save that as a new theme instead of saving under the current one. When you choose a desktop wallpaper it seems to randomly decide which pictures you want to have rotate. You check one image, and suddenly they're all checked, but it's difficult to tell. You select a new wallpaper folder and it checks every image automatically. It's completely unintuitive.

    Hi peter and Welcome to SevenForums

    It's really not that hard, select a folder, do clear all then check the ones you want to rotate.

    As Administrator, you can give your self the right to delete any files you wish (so long as they're not locked by an application). It's convoluted but it works.
    I've used a registry hack (found here) to add a "take ownership" option to the right-click menu for any folder, but even after doing that there are many folders I can't really mess with as much as I'd like to.

    Like the Windows.old folder. It wouldn't let me just delete it, even after I transferred ownership, etc. to myself. Also, it gives me error messages about access being denied when I try to change the permissions on my user folder.
