Need "permission" to install OBSE

My AVG Antivirus erroneously listed OBSE as malware and deleted it.

 

Ok, it should be nothing for me to just re-download and re-install the OBSE, right?

 

WRONG!

 

As I try to move obse_loader.exe (the only file which was taken away by AVG) from my download folder to my Oblivion installation folder, it won't transfer the file. It says I have to give administrator credentials.

 

I didn't even install the game inside Program Files, specifically to avoid this type of BS!

 

How do I give administrator credentials on a computer I own, and nobody else uses besides me?

 

For that matter, why aren't I automatically the administrator by default? Seriously, I'm the only account that this computer recognize! At the log-in page, my account is the only account you can even click on! Why aren't I the administrator by default?

 

EDIT: Actually, scratch that last paragraph. I went to Control Panel > User Accounts > User Accounts > Change User Account Type, and I found out that my default account IS the administrator account! So, my inability to transfer the executable file to my Oblivion folder mow makes even less sense!

 

EDIT: Ok, I also tried adding OBSE as an exception. I told AVG to not scan that software anywhere, even as it's transfered to new folders.

 

And guess what? I STILL can't transfer the file to my Oblivion folder!
