    ADMIN RIGHTS / ACCESS TO C DRIVE


    I was trying to uninstall a program and have managed to change all the permissions to my c drive and no longer have any access rights, no admin rights and I've completely messed this up .. help?


    I'm using windows 10 and have completely locked myself out of everything.

    I have tried going into computer management but I don't have access - tried changing the permissions but it's hopeless. I don't want to lose my work I've saved on the c:\ drive. I have my D drive still working but that's it.


    Can anyone suggest anything in order to get this back?


    Thanks

    :)

    Access denied to C disk and lost admin rights to system admin account

    Hi,

    It seems like you're using a standard user account. In order for you to access C: drive and perform major changes to the system like installing or uninstalling programs, you need to have administrator permissions.

    In order for us to provide a proper resolution, we would like to ask for additional information . Kindly answer the following questions:

    • Are you using a company PC that has a System Admin? If yes, we suggest that you contact them so that you can have your Admin rights again.
    • If you're using a personal PC, how many administrator accounts do you have?

    We look forward to your response.

    Hello,

    Are you able to login to Admin account?

    If yes, I suggest you to try the above steps from Step 2 and check if you can access files from C drive.

    Thank You.
