Using the '''admin''' command on its own returns the following text:

<blockquote>''[Username]''<br>To add extra users, add the grant parameter and the name.<br>(Example: admin grant exbungo.dat)<br>NOTE: ADDING CHARACTERS AS ADMINS CAN CAUSE UNEXPECTED CHANGES.</blockquote>

The command will display the user's PC name if the self awareness option is enabled. If it is disabled, it will instead display the name "User354378".

'''admin grant''' gives administrator permissions to various characters. All of them except for Moldy return the message "Loading..." before executing their effects. The 7 parameters are as follows:

* admin grant '''dave'''.dat: Loads '''House''' with Cheating's modchart.[https://youtu.be/QCEPoApu5xs?si=dQJ8saZebkPt2k-Q&t=14]
* admin grant '''bambi'''.dat: Loads '''Shredder''' and replaces every note with the up note, both in the chart and the UI.[https://youtu.be/QCEPoApu5xs?si=qLmY8cejEY5sQkDT&t=175]
* admin grant '''tristan'''.dat: Loads '''House''' and replaces the opponent and vocals with Tristan's. The note order is changed from left, down, up, right to left, right, up, down.[https://youtu.be/QCEPoApu5xs?si=CUMLIRGksfEBHQep&t=337]
* admin grant '''expunged'''.dat: [[Expunged]] spams the terminal screen with glitching effects and messages gloating and mocking the player for several seconds as an ear-piercing glitch sound is played before crashing the game. Reopening it will reveal that the game has been altered significantly, replacing the program title with ''Vs. Expunged''. The only option given to the player is to play the newly-unlocked '''Exploitation'''. The game can be returned to normal either by beating Exploitation, or by closing the game window; if the player does the latter, Expunged leaves a taunting message for them for next time they open the game, calling them a coward.
* admin grant '''moldy'''.dat: Returns the message "you know what? im gonna close the game so you can watch my baldi's basics playthrough...". It then crashes the game and opens a video by Moldy titled [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azMGySH8fK8 me playing baldi's basics] uploaded to the dillon's videos channel. The audio is heavily volume-boosted and the video quality is only available in 144p.
* admin grant '''exbungo'''.dat: Has a random chance of loading either '''House''', '''Insanity''', '''Polygonized''', '''Five Nights''', '''Splitathon''', or '''Shredder'''. It will load Exbungo as the opponent, replace the instrumental with amen breaks, and add the wavy distortion effect from Kabunga. The vocals remain the same as the original opponent's.[https://youtu.be/QCEPoApu5xs?si=gyP-g5X6-G424d6u&t=494]
* admin grant '''recurser'''.dat (3.0b): Loads '''Polygonized''' with a wavy arrow modchart and altered cutscene dialogue. The world starts off at nighttime in 2D; only at the very end of the song does the background switch to Polygonized's, and Dave with his scared 2D sprite.[https://youtu.be/uFkBM6sC7JM?si=eQU83MH4lz-aHbMm&t=17] The beginning dialogue is as follows:

[[File:Recurser admin polygonized end dialogue.gif|frame|right|Ending dialogue of Polygonized when Recurser is given admin.]]

<blockquote>
'''Dave:''' It's getting quite late, maybe we could do one last song?<br>
'''Boyfriend:''' Beepity Bep!<br>
'''Dave:''' Hm, how about something a bit more experimental?<br>
'''Dave:''' Something more dramatic since this is our last song of today...<br>
'''Girlfriend:''' Hm, I have this experimental track on here... called "Polygonized"<br>
'''Dave:''' Huh, Interesting name. Who made it?<br>
'''Girlfriend:''' Honestly I have no clue. I don't recall ever downloading this song...<br>
'''Boyfriend:''' Skep dep!<br>
'''Girlfriend:''' Alright alright, I'll play it..<br>
</blockquote>

At the end, the screen is replaced with a black background and white disembodied text in the center, where lower-opacity copies of said text drift around the screen:
<blockquote>
Well. It was worth a shot.<br>
Time to get back to keeping this world in order.<br>
Just the way I love it.
</blockquote>

Following this, the game returns to the terminal screen.
