I am editing httpd.conf in the "conf" directory as administrator, as I
said, I have disabled UAC and my account is an administrator account
so it will always run everything through my account unless specified
otherwise.
I have already confirmed that Apache is using httpd.conf in the "conf"
directory because I've done other changes to the config file and those
changes do show.

To avoid any further confusion about user-rights:
httpd.exe is running as one of the built-in accounts that comes with
Windows called SYSTEM (through Services). Checking Apache's folder
rights confirms that SYSTEM has full rights, so in other words,
httpd.exe (Apache server) has full rights to its folder, all sub
folders and files. Reading and writing is no problem.

So to summarize it all:

1) I am running an administrator account, all applications I launch
will always be run through my account unless specified otherwise.
Saving httpd.conf is not a problem, even if there would be a problem,
my text editing program would have told me it was unable to write to
the file.
2) httpd.exe (Apache server) is being run with the account SYSTEM
which has full rights to the Apache server's folder, sub folders and
all files by default.
3) Apache server is using httpd.conf inside the "conf" dir, it is confirmed.
4) Apache has loaded log_config_module.
5) CustomLog "combined" directive is not being overridden.
