Windows 10: I keep getting a system 5 error when I am running the cmd as an admin, when I have admin...

I want to run the command "net start sppsvc" but everytime I try to run it as an administrator, I get a system 5 error, saying it cannot run. I am trying to do this because my computer is saying I do not have the licensing to run Windows, with the error code 0xC004F012, and when I troubleshoot, I get the error code 0xc0000022. My Software Protection Service is not running, and I am trying to run it.

System error 5 has occurred even as admin - (cmd) Windows 10

My system is Windows 10 Pro x64, with the latest updates applied.

When I try to execute any "net" command in cmd (eg: net stop TeamViewer, net users, etc') I get the error "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied."

I have researched for hours and did every possible solution I saw mentioned anywhere but still no luck.
Here are a few facts:

1. I opened the cmd with admin rights (see screenshot below)
2. I am the sole PC user with full admin rights.
3. This happens even if I disable Windows Firewall.
4. My UAC is disabled and in the registry, EnableLUA is set to 0.
5. Created a new administrator account and tested it there. Same issue.
6. Also in Windows Built-in administrator account, the issue happens.

How can I give myself access to run net commands?

 

admin password?

You can reset the Admin Password using Windows XP repair; See Here for step by step.
