Since Windows Vista, it's a fucking pain in the ass to make you the owner of a file.
Here's a registry key that adds an option on the right-click context menu that lets you make changes to the file instantly.
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas]
@="Take Ownership"
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas\command]
@="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant users:F && attrib -r \"%1\" && pause"
"IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant users:F && attrib -r \"%1\" && pause"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas]
@="Take Ownership"
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas\command]
@="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant users:F /t && attrib -r \"%1\\*.*\" && pause"
"IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant users:F /t && attrib -r \"%1\\*.*\" /s && pause"
