Discus and support I made my account "Device Owner" and now I don't have admin priveleges in AntiVirus, Firewalls and System Security to solve the problem; I couldn't get google chrome to start I'm pretty sure it was because I blocked it by accident years ago on a different computer so I tried running it...

    I made my account "Device Owner" and now I don't have admin priveleges


    I couldn't get google chrome to start I'm pretty sure it was because I blocked it by accident years ago on a different computer so I tried running it as Administrator. That didn't work, so I went into my account settings and made myself "device owner." Now I don't have admin privileges and I can't reverse the change. How can I fix this? I'm the sole user of this device.

    :)
