SQLDeveloper.exe itself is getting access denied

Installed Oracle 11g and the 11g client. Everytime I start SQLDeveloper it prompts for the java.exe and again which files to associate. It must be trying to save this in registry (or maybe disk). I'm going to try "run as Admin" - is that required?

I see this "access is denied" in the command window. I'm starting it by running this .exe:

Part 2 of my quesiton/issue - I'm on Win 7, from the start menu, I search for "SQL Dev...", and the entry that shows up is a link to the following .BAT file that doesn't even exist: - C:\Oracle11gClientApp\neal.walters\product\11.2.0\client_1\SQLDEVELOPER\SQLDEVELOPER\BIN\SQLDEVELOPER.BAT The directory exists, but no .BAT files in it. The closest physical .bat file I can see is this one: c:\Oracle11gClientApp\neal.walters\product\11.2.0\client_1\sqldeveloper\sqlcli.bat (and it gives an "index out of range" when I run it.
