Hi Richard,

Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

  Are you logged in with a Microsoft account or Local account?

  Are you trying to create new user account using Administrator account?
  

I suggest you to run SFC scan.

Unable to change my account type to Administrator and cant create a new account.

Hi Aadil,

I suggest you to activate Default Administrator and try creating a new Account with Administrative privileges. Try the below steps and check if you can create a new Account.

• 
  Press Windows key + X and select
  Command prompt(Admin).
  
• 
  Type the following command and hit
  Enter:
  

net user administrator /active:yes



Now, sign out from the current account and you will be able to see a new Administrator account. Sign in to the new Administrator Account and you may create
a new user account with administrative privileges. You can also change the current local user account to Administrator Account. Follow the below steps to change the current local user account to Administrator Account.

• 
  Begin by right-clicking the
  Start Icon of Windows, then click Control Panel.
  
• 
  Then under User Accounts and Family Safety, click
  Change Account Type.
  
• 
  Then choose the account you wish to change, and double-click it.
  
• 
  Then click on Change Account Type.
  
• 
  Then choose the Account Type you want the user to be, you can choose between Standard and Administrator.
  
• 
  Click on Change Account Type.
  

After creating the new user account or changing the current account to Administrator Account, use the following command at the command prompt (as mentioned above) to disable the default administrator account:



net user administrator /active:no
