    there's something call 'admin' on a computer

    making a 'user' an 'admin' does not make it fully admin - How to Change Administrator on Windows 10 : HelloTech How

    there's certain files you cant access

    and some software need to be open as 'admin' even tho you are already admin

    so this 'admin' wording by microsoft is false + unhelpful cos it's not really fully admin

    steps to make computer fully admin?

    Computer not fully shutting down after windows 10 update

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

    Method 1: I suggest you to run in-built Power troubleshooter and check. Follow the steps:

    • Press Windows Key + X.
    • Click on Control Panel.
    • In the search box, type Troubleshooter and then click Troubleshooting.
    • Under System and Security,
    • Click on Power and Click on Next button.
    Method 2: If the above method doesn’t help, I would suggest you to
    reset and restore all of the default Power Plans back with their default settings. Follow the steps.

    • Press Windows Key + X.
    • Select Command Prompt (Admin).
    • At the command prompt, type powercfg -restoredefaultschemes, and then press
      ENTER.
    • At the command prompt, type exit to exit the Command Prompt window.
    • Restart the computer and check with the issue.

    Let us know if the issue is resolved or if you require further assistance.
