Change permission in C:/windows   
I need permission in C:/windows (the entire windows folder) So that i
can remove notepad.exe and put in notepad++.exe

It also needs to be done inside the /windows/system32 folder thats why
i need permission to the entire windows folder.

Unless you have administrator privileges, you can not alter the contents of 
the Windows folder. Vista is supposed to work that way, it safeguards the 
operating system.

Programs are not supposed to be installed in any Windows folders. Install 
your text editor in a C:\Program Files subfolder instead.

If you like it to swap Notepad for Notepad++ in the user interface, simply 
replace the Notepad start menu shortcut with a Notepad++ one. Notepad++'s 
installer will do all this for you, except for deleting the Notepad start 
menu entry.
