Best Answer

In order to keep a normal user from making bad changes to a computer or computer program, different "levels" of users will be created. The most privileged level of users is often called the "administrator" level, and will have no restrictions on what may be done.

If a program needs to be run with administrator rights, it usually means that it will be making changes to system settings or modifying files in protected areas of the computer and so it needs someone with the appropriate account to launch it.

If the son is the aministrator of the estate does the spouse still have rights to the stocks and bonds?

The administrator of an estate simply takes care of the details. When there is an administrator, he decides how the estate will be divided. The spouse has no rights to the stocks and bonds. The spouse has rights to a percent of the estate as determined by the law, will, or probate judge. The administrator can decide to give the spouse only stocks, only bonds, or only cash. The administrator can sell everything and divide the money. That is the way it works.
