    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

    Windows 10 is reading every Administrator account I have or create as a Built in Admin.

    Hi,

    I realize that you are facing the issue with Built-in Administrator account. Let me assist you.

    To assist you better, I like to know what you mean by “reading every Administrator account I have or create as a Built in Admin”.

    As per the description, I suggest you to create a new user account and then convert it into administrator account and check if it helps.

    As an initial step of troubleshooting, disable the built-in administrator by following the below steps;


    • Press Windows
      key + X key and select Command Prompt.

    • Type net user administrator /active:no
      and press Enter key.
    Follow the link below to create a new user account.

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/getstarted-set-up-accounts

    Follow the steps below to change the new user account to administrator account.

    • Press Windows Key + R key.
    • Type netplwiz and press Enter key.
    • Click on the account that you have to give administrator privileges.
    • Click on Properties and then click on Group Membership tab.
    • Now select Administrator option and click on Apply and
      Ok.
    • Restart the system and check if the issue is resolved.
    Hope the information helps. Kindly write back to us with the updated status of the issue for further assistance on Windows. We will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you.

    Re-create the built-in Administrator account after

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


    Hi guys

    I have same issue in safe boot mode with networking!

    First of all it blocks the networking

    Then states:

    Settings cant be opened using the built in administrator account sign in with different account and try again.


    Yet clicking on windows i opens settings fine


    It also states broadband blocked, yet I can happily get on the net but at first I couldn't.

    When I asked about it the guy from Microsoft tech answers couldn't understand why I wanted to use safe boot mode with networking????????

    After he did nothing to help but emailed some scripts which didn't refer to safe mode. I rebooted and suddenly safe mode with networking worked with the net but windows 10 still claims broadband is blocked!

    Im also still getting the message on trying to unblock broadband:

    cant be opened using the built in administrator account sign in with different account and try again.

    What is going on there?
