  1. Account status change all of a sudden


    Is there any way to change it without creating additional microsoft account just to change it? I don't even know how is it possible that my account which previously was an Adult one was changed to a Child one. I don't have a family group and I didn't change anything in setting for a long time. Even my birthdate is there which is way past the mark. I've tried few thing from this forum but nothing really works.

    :)

    Account status change all of a sudden

    How do you change a user account to an administrator account in Windows 10?

    Hi Fiona,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    I would suggest you to go to control panel and check your user account status. Right click on the start button and select control panel in the menu. In the control panel, click on the 'view by' option in the top right and select 'large icons'. Now, click
    on 'User accounts' and check if your account is listed as Administrator. If it is not displayed as Admin account, click on the option 'Change user account type' and select 'Administrator' and apply changes. Try these steps and let us know the results. If you
    have already tried, please let us know what all troubleshooting steps you have tried so far, so that we can provided you suggestion accordingly.
