Some context would help here. Do you mean when running programs on Windows, like running VPilot as admin for example?

It's generally recommended to always run Flight Sim (FS9, FSX, FSX:SE at least) as an administrator. You then should run ANY programs connecting to flight sim as an administrator as well, so vPilot, Active Sky, etc, as these programs read outputs from the simulator, which may not be available if the sim is being ran in admin and the program is not.
