You're missing something.

The Windows NT family of Windows contains "Administrative" shares that
are created on bootup.  They are:

\\servername\c$ for root access to C:\
\\servername\d$ for root access to D:\ (etc)
\\servername\admin$ for access to %SystemRoot%

These shares are set for access for Administrators only.
