I totally agree with you Linux experts on the hardcore technical engineering aspects of Linux. However, the mass majority of PC users only want to do the normal everyday stuff (eg reading emails, surf the Web) and are forced to use only Windows since Windows 1.0 was born. And countless...

"New Win11 Accounts with Administrator rights not able to modify C drive" means that I could NOT even do that.

My comment was referring to the fact that any piece of software can cause havoc to your system like virus do. And Windows 11 is NO difference to itself.

So you do know that MS was a virus that spread and killed off the better OS2 (at the time) and Linux and spread ALL over the world to have become the dominant virus. Is it not? Bill Gates ripped off CPM OS in that fateful meeting in IBM. So now you know how long I have been using Windows? MCSE...

A couple of so call commenters assuming they knew all and I assumed they were the Gen Z arrogant type. I did mention that I was very experienced with using Windows but I was stumped with this weird issue.

Did you miss my earlier comment about no UAC prompt at all with ONLY secondary account users. Everything works with the main user?

Another cocky commenter. Have you read ALL of this thread? Do you know how many BUGs Windows 11 still have?

Again, you sound really cocky. TeraCopy is a legit software but the earlier version I got has bugs. Got it?

I did use a clean Reset feature to fix an issue on this box, BUT Windows 11 was not fully functioning. The Windows Defender was not even working so I had to do a clean installation from scratch. Windows itself is a virus :)

Well well well. Re-installing my apps from a clean backed-up image the box and revealed the culprit. The tell-tale sign was there was no UAC prompt when I tried to copy a file into the OS partition. Any piece of software (either legit or not) could be a virus to Windows 11. An earlier version...

Did the Malwarebytes and found nothing.

You think? You sound very cocky. I did say I am very experienced with Windows PC (probably even before you were born). Be kind to other members.

I did an offline scan using the Win11 built-in anti-virus tool as it should be good enough.

I will re-post this issue on the MS Windows 11 forum to see if MS experts can shed a light on this issue.

Thanks everyone for your advice. If anyone else could shed a light on this weird issue, please drop a line.
