Honestly, you don't really need to run CS:GO as an admin. The game runs perfectly fine without it. Unless you're troubleshooting or messing with game files, just launch it normally and get to playing.

Running CS:GO as an admin is super easy! Just right-click on the CS:GO icon on your desktop, then select 'Properties'. Click on the 'Compatibility' tab, and then check the box that says 'Run this program as an administrator'. Click 'Apply', then 'OK', and voila! You're all set to run CS:GO with those sweet admin privileges.

I had to run CS:GO as admin once when I was having weird permission issues with my mods. Right-clicking the game shortcut and choosing 'Run as administrator' fixed it right up. Easy peasy.
