  1. Create Admin account without Admin privileges


    I purchased a laptop from my high school because i need it for homework at home as a personal computer but i cant do much with the laptop because i dont have access to the administrator account, i checked and there is no administrator account on it, it hasnt been disabled though so i think IT may have just deleted the admin account. Im not that familiar with windows as i am with linux so i dont know what to do in a situation like this. The internet hasnt been that helpful with creating an admin accout. I would just use cmd normally for this but i am not an admin so i dont have the privileges to create or modify accounts. I cant just reinstall windows as the system has all the software i need that the school payed for but i cant go on with an admin account as all the restrictions from when the school used the computer are still there, certain applications and most games are blocked. Anyway does anyone know how i can make an admin account with an average user?
