Everyone who is curious would like to know more about what happens on the Windows 11/10 operating system when you instruct the operating system to run a program as an administrator on Windows 10 and why this process is required at all.
When you log on to Windows, your account is assigned a type of user account that contains identifying information, including your user groups and permissions such as read, write and execute permissions. The information in this user account includes a level of integrity that is used by the operating system to determine the trustworthiness of objects such as files, registry keys, to inform users about the start of installations and to protect processes from unnecessary access to system files.
By default, a standard user account has medium integrity. This is the maximum level available for creating a process if you open an executable file without granting increased access through administrator credentials .
Even though Microsoft does not recommend running programs as an administrator and giving them access to integrity with no good reason, new programs must be installed in order for you to be able to install an application that always requires administrator access with user account control enabled, as well as other software, as well Scripts often work with an elevated status.
