>When I log into a new Windows 2019 Server as a member of the Administrators group and launch VFP every table I open is in readonly mode. If use "Run As Administrator" then the tables open in read/write mode. I do not understand why a member of the Administrator's group has this problem. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Are the tables located locally on the server or on a network? Have you checked the access rights on the folder (if it resides on a network share, what are the access rights of the folder and what are the sharing rights) ?
Some folders (such as the C:\WINDOWS and C:\PROGRAM FILES and C:\PROGRAM FILES (x86) would be generally read-only standard users.
When you launch an application, generally it launches with the access rights of a "standard" user -- even if you are a member of Administrators.
