don't have permissions for any mods to E:\Program Files

What are you trying to access Program Files for?  Windows 7 locks you (even Administrators) out of Program Files (as well as other locations), as users should not generally need to access it directly.  There is a way, but I'll wait to give it to you until I know why ... Winodws does this for your own good :)

You will need to consult with the vendor of your specific software to see what restrictions it has running on Vista/7 and what other issues you may encounter doing the following.  In most cases, you can simply install to a special folder.  For example, create a folder C:\datamaster, then install it to that folder; this folder you will have ownership and full control over.  

You do NOT, even as an administrator, have full access to the Program Files folder - this is by design.  You can take ownership of the Program Files folder (currently owned by Trusted Installer), so as to allow you to modify whatever permissions you believe you or your application need, BUT I would STRONGLY recommend you NOT do this, and instead either work around it (user-created folder or other vendor-provided solution) or get software that is Windows Vista/7 compliant.

some of my programs work incorrectly, or are unuseable. i.e., One program says i don't have permission to access it's 'data files' which makes it unuseable.[ Image #1] 'DataMaster' won't  allow updates to the program " don;t have permission . .  .'[ Image #2] But will  after i installed the program to on C:\  Mailwasher does not work properly, but will ,when installed in a different folder Same with CyberPower [backup battery pak], and i don't know how many others.

  Also cannot Rename or Move ANY of the programs in E:\Program Files.

      would Appreciate your help:emotion-1:

If TrustedInstaller is not listed as the Owner of your Program Files folder (Advanced Security Settings), then you have a NON-STANDARD Windows 7 installation.  This may in some way be responsible for the problems you are having now ... either having the security settings screwed up led to settings that Windows protects by default by blocking access to Program Files being changed in a way they could not have been with a default configuration or something (malware probably) has made these changes.

4.I do not want my programs on the same drive [Partition] as the operating system.

I understand this - it is a common setup; there is nothing inherently wrong with this, but it is something I only implement with very small OS disks (SSD).

8. Why do you not want me to have control over E:\Program files?

It's not me that doesn't want you to have access to your Program Files ... it is Microsoft, but I agree with their reasoning, and its for the users' own good.  Windows 7-compliant software uses C:\Program Data and the users' App Data folders to store data files, NOT Program Files.

• I notice that my F: Drive [Partition] which i use to store data, does not have "Trusted Installer" either, and seems to work fine, Neither does another drive which i use as a backup. Could this be a special feature of C:\Program files only and not User defined drives/folders?
• No malware on the machine. [2 different scans] Though that doesn't mean that their wasn't at some earlier time ..
• Do you think a reinstall of W 7 from the disks that came with the computer would fix it?   I have 1 Windows 7 disk and 4 driver+ misc disks.
