It does for me. I do that all the time, and I've never had the problem.

That is simply false. There are several ways for a user with admin
privileges not to have access to a local folder on Windows. Read up on
NTFS ACLs and you'll find it.
There are also several cases where Windows will report access denied for
errors that *are not related to permissions*.

We're trying. That's why I asked you those questions. Without feedback,
we can't make it better, because it works fine in all "normal"
situations for thousands of other people. We want to know *why* it
didn't work in your case, so we can fix it or at least document it.
