    Can I use name found with "net localgroup administrators"?


    Computer: Dell Laptop 1 yr oldOS: Windows 11 ProWhen I use the Command Prompt "net localgroup administrators"I get the following screen display...Administratorsmlth_xxxxxx axtual name hidden for privacyI am in a jam without any admin rights. An issue that has been fully explored with Microsoft 3 sessions yesterday including one with Level 2 with the consensus being a recommendation of a clean install of Windows 11 when you have no admin rights.I am fine with a clean install. But I need admin rights first. A bit of a catch-22. smileBut the only reason for my post is I am curious since

    :)

    Weird account name and lost Administrator rights.


    From a command prompt type "net localgroup administrators" without the quotes. What users does it list as administrators?

    It sounds like it's already an administrator.

    Use the command below from OPTION FOUR above to see if the account's name is listed as an administrator to be sure.

    net localgroup administrators
