    I cannot make my account an admin


    I started using this computer at work and logged into it with my account, we have a local domain. But on this computer I don't have admin privileges and I have been trying to give myself but they aren't working. I use another machine at work with the same account, under the same domain and I have admin privileges on that but I can't get it to happen on this one. The windows version is 10 pro.
