Hi, I am using Windows 10.

Whenever i try to open the program "Adobe Photoshop CC 2019", the program will prompt me for the administrator password. I have to type in the password before I am able to use the program. There is no administrator password login needed whenever I switch on the PC. The password prompt is only when I run "Adobe Photoshop". This password was previously setup by someone who left, to disallow other users to use the Photoshop program. The tick box for the program's "Run as Administrator" is not checked. The program's permission rights for all the Groups and Users are set as Full Control".

Please teach me how to remove this administrator password set on the program? I am a noob. Step by step please.

Thank you for your time.

    Hello

    Thank you for your question and reaching out. I can understand you are having issues related to UAC prompt when your run Adobe CC.

    Method 1:
    It requires admin rights mostly to install the major updates/upgrades on the device wherein the end-user either does not have enough admin rights to perform the action or because of UAC.
    In your case you can just turn off UAC from control panel.

    Method 2:

    Right Click on Adobe CC Short cut -> Click Run As Administrator
