    No admin privileges in Windows 10 - can't install software


    I have the same problem as is described here:

    No administrator account and other problems after updates - Microsoft Community


    No admin privileges, so I can not install software or make any changes to my Lenovo laptop running Windows 10. I have followed the instructions I found on various sites, however I get the same problem the user in the link above had - access denied, or a pop up box asking 'do you want to let XX make changes to your computer', but there's no 'yes' button, and no way to sign in as an administrator.


    The support in the link above did not seem to resolve the problem. I can't find a resolution to this anywhere - can someone help?


    Thank you


    Jane
