vista and security

I installed windows vista on my home computer. The problem I am having is,
every time when I try to copy or create or delete a folder or file, I get
this dialog box saying me i need the permission to execute this function,
whether I want to continue or cancel, when I click on allow then it will do
the function. It is very annoying, is there a way I can get rid of this. This
is a stand alone computer, not on a network. Or anything and I am the only
one using it. Could some one help me on this issue please?

Ollakal, you need to turn off the UAC.

See: http://www.petri.co.il/disable_uac_in_windows_vista.htm

As has been mentioned you can turn off UAC. Before you do this please take
the time to understand what UAC is and how it works.

If you are constantly getting a UAC prompt when you are trying to manipulate
folders then the folders are in a system area that is restricted for
security reasons. One reason for this security is to make sure that you stay
the only user on the computer.
