Administrator
July 30, 2015 - 9:15 amA PC Administrator (sometimes shortened to “Admin”) is a user who has permission to add, edit and remove any files or system settings on a PC. When a program is run as an administrator by right-clicking it and choosing the option to “Run as Administrator”, this program also has these permissions.
Many features of Spybot and other antivirus programs must be run as an Administrator to search through all files of your PC for malware and viruses, and to have the ability to remove malware when it is found regardless of the location of the file.
