Windows 10: Take back control. Become super user admin with control of gp and uac.

I’ve been hacked now my devices are infected with malware. It’s a key logger rat and it’s taking all my personal data, all my emails basically taken control of everything. It has all uac permissions and group policy in its favour. I tried to net user myself in but was denied, tried to run offline windows defender scan was also denied. How can i turn the table and rid of this headache?.Currently running win 11 home edition. Dell Alienware Aurora 11.

UAC (User Account Control)

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



In order to get better clarity, please let us know:

• When you say “I lost my UAC password”, do you mean you do not remember the password of the administrator account?
  
• Are you using a standard account to login to the computer?
  
• Are you using a local account or Microsoft account?
  
• How many user accounts do you have on your computer?
  
• Are you aware of any changes made to the computer prior to the issue?
  

Ideally, the UAC prompt comes up when an administrative task is performed using a standard account. Whenever a UAC prompt comes up, you will need to enter the administrator account’s password to provide the permission.
