Useless .exe files

Why is it that most of the .exe files in C:\Windows\System32 don't work. The
only thing that happens is a cmd prompt screen pops-up and then dissappears
quickly. What's up with this?!

And just why would you be "messing" with the sytem32 folder in the first
place?

there is a thing called curiosity...

it’s a trait... after he messes up his system he will know more than before.

It's how people learn.
If you only do what you already know, you end up humping things all day.

And if you "mess" with OS folders without good reason (or knowing what you
are doing - and I can't think of ANY reason to "mess" with that folder in
the first place) you end up repairing your OS all day!

Just as Hobbes said..its how I learn new things...and If I mess up to a point
that nothing will work, I will just reinstall Vista...it wouldn't be the
first time.
