Windows 10: I was on netplwiz, and accidentally removed my account from the administrator list, and now...

I really need help man, and I don't want to reinstall Windows again. I can only use another account which isn't even administrator. My account doesn't show up on the lock menu, and if I want to do something that needs administrator permissions, it doesn't ask for an administrator username and password, it just straight up says no. Please can anyone give me a solution?

Remove account

I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
To delete an account, follow these steps:

1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

 

Accidental administrator removal, one account helppppppp

Can anybody give me a very basic step by step guide as to how I return administrative rights back to my account after I've accidentally removed them. Im very poor with computers and It's the only account on my laptop so every time I try to follow tutorials
to restore rights back to my account it doesn't give me the option to. I removed them by holding down the windows button and R before typing netplwiz and following the menus to the point where it gave me the choice. Please help me I was trying to find a way
to fix a MSO2087 auto correct error every time I opened Word 2013 and have seriously messed up. Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me.

 

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown
