[QUOTE="monkeylove, post: 943308, member: 19756"] One possible reason why it is turned off by default is because many users may have difficulty figuring out why they're unable to access their documents, etc., and company will be swamped by complaints. It's also possible that at some point malware developers might be able to develop software that might be similar to those considered safe by the OS and then access protected folders that way. Given that, the company will have to work harder on its security program to deal with both issues, and more. [/QUOTE]
