As you are about to install adb in a protected folder you must grant right for the copy :

Once adb installed in C:\Program Files\platform-tools you must add this repository in the $PATH to allow the shell or other programs to locate it automatically.
This can be achieve by searching for Edit the system environment variables in the search bar of Windows :
Then click on Environment Variables… :
Find and select in the list of System variables the line containing Path and click on Edit… :
Check that C:\Program Files\platform-tools is not already in the list.
