    I am the only user on my computer window 11 home and logged in as the administrator I have already checked in setting->account, my email is a regular Hotmail account not a school/work email.I tried to access the "Windowsapp" folder but it stated I need to provide administrator permission to change these attributes.I know I need to change the owner of the folder so I followed the instruction here. However, when I opened the "Advanced Security Settings for WindowsApps" window, in the "Owner" section, it stated, "Unable to display current owner." After applying the changes of selecting a

    Admin Account Aking for Admin permissions.

    Windows 10 20h2
    Im going nuts with this new level of protection.

    Turned the Uac to the lowest, still im having windows pooping all the time asking for permissions sometimes applications that cant do some actions unless im as admin or copying files to specific folders, its really annoying.

    For applications I can go to properties and add run this program as an administrator problem solved but for copying files i dont know how to stop the asking admin permissions.

    Any work around to solve this.

    Error of asking permission from the administrator

    Hello,

    The error message that asks permission usually appears when you don't have administrator rights to copy a file or folder. To determine the cause of the issue, we'd like to ask a few questions:

    • What is the exact error message that you're getting?
    • Were you able to copy files before without any error?
    • Were there any changes made on your PC prior to this?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you follow the steps provided by Niranjan Manjhi on this
    post. It includes guidelines on how to take ownership of a file or folder,
    turn off the User Account Control (UAC) which is necessary in preventing unauthorized changes to your computer, and enabling the hidden built-in administrator account on your PC. This was marked as an answer and a lot of Community members
    claimed it as helpful and that it solved their problem.

    Please update us with the results. We will be glad to assist you.

    no administrator permission

    Hi Ryan,

    Let us assist you to have an Administrator permission. To start, follow the steps below to enable the Windows Super Administrator Account.

    • Type CMD on the search box.
    • CMD will appear at top.
    • Right click on it, then choose Run as administrator.
    • Type this command & hit Enter: Net user administrator /active:yes.
    • After you enable the Super Administrator account, log out on your existing account then log into Super Administrator account.
    • On the Super Administrator account, you can now create an Administrator account or give Administrator permission on the existing account.

    After you created an Administrator account, we suggest that you disable the Super Administrator account by following the same steps and using this command:
    Net user administrator /active:no.

    Let us know how it goes.
