Default Removing all registry, folder, and file restrictions (ownership, permissions, etc)

OK, I've about reached my limit with Windows 7 and its rules and
regulations. Since I am the only user and I am not on a network, I want
complete and unfettered access to all registry settings, folders, and files
on MY computer. Isn't there any utility program out there that can do this
automatically? (And please, I don't want to rehash the potential security
issues with this approach). I just want a simple utility program, and would
prefer not to to have to go through all the command line stuff like TAKEOWN,
ICACLS, etc, etc. And I want to do this for the entire C: partition. And
yes, I am aware of the security risks.


I don't know about the others, but Take Ownership can be inserted into
the right-click menu (for both folders and files), rather than having to
use the command line; I forget how I did it, but I'm sure someone will
say.
