Add non-Microsoft device to my Microsoft account.

I bought a new non-Microsoft laptop. I am trying to add this laptop to the list of my devices. I cannot find a way to perform this function.

I received a response that I need to log into the device as an administrator.

I logged into my Microsoft account on the device. I saw no options to log in as an administrator. When you log in, are you not the administrator. If not, how does one log in as an administrator?

You can say that I need more info on the needed steps.
