Good evening,
Everything is in the title, but to be more precise, I'm new to Mac OS, and I have installed various software/applications on my Administrator account.
Now I've just created a User account intended for everyday use, and I'm struggling to access these software/applications installed on my Administrator account that do not appear on my User account.
What is the solution to share them?
Do I have to install them a second time?
(My computer is a MacBook Pro 2019)
Thank you in advance for any help that will be more than welcome!

The software installed "on your Administrator account" is located in the folder /Users/[administrator]/Applications. To make it usable from other accounts, it needs to be in /Applications (the one at the root of the startup disk):
For most applications, simply moving them to this folder will be sufficient. However, it is possible that a few applications may need to be reinstalled (?)
