That is the cool part about living on Windows and part of me gets sadder every time they try to limit it. I understand the rationale, but I still like to be able to tinker with 3rd party software while it's running. The whole concept of app isolation just rubs me wrong.
Yeah, there's quite a lot of Raymond Chen posts with the theme of "we had to take this cool feature out because people were abusing it". Only way round that is to go full Apple and refuse to run unvetted applications.
Maybe we need a flavour of UAC that allows you to put random junk apps in sandboxes while the others talk happily among each other.
