Windows 10: admin rights taken away on personal laptop

I turned on my computer the other day and was attempting to clean it up and delete folders and what not. When I turned it on, for some reason all of the "hidden" folders were now showing up and I was denied access from certain folders and was told I needed administrator rights to perform some tasks. It is a personal computer and my account is the only one. I have not had any downloads or anything. When i was using it earlier in the day, i did not have any issues.mWhen I check my account settings, I am listed as the administrator. I cannot figure out why/what all of these settings randomly changed on me and I need to have administrator rights and complete control of my own computer.

admin rights keep disappearing!?!!

Hi guys,

I am actually having a problem at work that our IT department hasn't been able to figure out. I am supposed to be a member of the admin group. We are on a domain. The problem is that everytime I reboot the computer I loose my admin rights(no longer in the administrator group) and just become a normal user again. I have tried googling this and didn't get to many results.
I believe IT is just giving me local admin rights, not admin rights for the whole domain.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: It is on Windows XP Pro.

 

Windows 10 Admin rights?

I am becoming increasingly frustrated with windows 10, for some unexplained reason the photos app stopped working, the suggestion is to uninstall and reinstall this app, however the system reports that I do not have admin rights to perform this operation!

I wonder who does, I log into windows as an administrator and could do anything, this is a new problem since upgrading to windows 10 on my single user personal laptop.

I did find a community post showing the following instructions:

I request you to follow the below steps and disable in built admin account on the computer.

• Open Command Prompt in Admin mode.
• Copy and paste the below command and press Enter.

net user administrator /active:no

3.Close the elevated command prompt.

4.The built-in Administrator will now be available to select to sign into.

However all I get for my trouble is access denied error 5

So where do we go from here?

I am 66 already and cannot wait forever to sort this please help
