Windows 10: i am the only admin on the computer and now after a single restart i am a guest account.

so around 3-4 days ago i performed a restart, after that restart my account, which was the only admin on the computer, was locked to a guest account with slight admin perms. for example, i cant use an installer, but i can open apps that need admin every time. i have tried everything i can, like use the registry editor on boot, that hasn't worked. it also is very difficult to find solutions to this because they all assume that you can still use admin perms. on top of this, i cant use anything other than face id to click yes, if i remove the face id as a login option and try using my pin instead

:)
