Run As Administrator?

What does this mean if it's checked off in Properties?

Hi,

It means the application is run with elevated privilege, allowing unfettered
write/change to designated system folders. Normally, an application runs
virtualized from a user's appdata folder, not from the system folders.

Thanks - but I don't understand all of it. I'll try to look it up.

Hello RMO,

"Run as administrator" will allow a program to run with full
administrator rights and permission to have full access to everything.

Hope this helps,
