I just want to tell you you can alter the system files, just take ownership of them first. Every Windows system file since Vista is owned by "TrustedInstaller" so not even Admin accounts have permission to alter them, if you change the owner to Administrator you can do whatever you want.

Can't remember if I bothered trying that, but sounds like it could work - I do remember trying something like that (screwing around with permissions and ownership) on Vista but failed, so I ended up having to do an offline edit.  The message is misleading in any case.
If it's owned by a special group, I guess a work around would be to add your account to that group.
Thanks :)
