Windows 10: Lost administration control

Today I lost my administrative permissions on my pc and I can’t fix it, I’ve tried accessing the admin command prompt and I can’t, I can’t create new users or anything. I don’t know what to do, only thing I haven’t tried is a factory reset of my pc, is there anything else I can do or is that what I’ll have to do?

Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


Hello,
Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Lost administrative control

Hi Sagar,

Are you receiving this pop-up with other programs or is it specific to Python? Are there other users in the PC? Also, are you signed in with an admin account? I suggest that you use another user and check if you'll still receive the same User Account Control
(UAC) prompt.

If there aren't any other admin users in the PC, here's how to create one:

• Click on Start, and then go to Settings > Accounts
  > Family & other people > Add someone else to this PC.
• Enter a user name, password, password hint, and then click Next.

Your reply is most important for me to assist you accordingly.
