    admin privileges somehow got revoked at system reboot


    when my pc rebooted last night windows update being annoying, it somehow revoked my admin privileges. rebooting into the windows recovery environment and selecting command prompt just asks me for the administrator account's password, which doesn't exist. is there a fix for this?

    some useful info might be that i changed my full name in the windows account management before it rebooted

    :)

    Granted system32 Admin to access. How to revoke?

    System32 is not actually restricted for read access, the USERS group has Read & execute, List folder contents, and Read access by default. Anyone, standard user or admin can see its contents. Its a few of its sub-folders that are more restricted.

    you get admin privileges, or you don't run VPC.
