User Account keeps popping up with only the no option.

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that whenever you try to delete or make any certain changes you get a User Account Prompt with only No option. I’ll certainly assist you with the issue.



However, please let us know:

• Are you logged in using an Administrator account?
  
• How many user accounts are there in the computer?
  
• Are you aware of any changes made to the computer prior to this issue?
  
• Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on the computer? Refer
  Which version of Windows operating system am I running?
  

I would suggest you to try enabling the default administrator and check if you are able to make the changes. Follow the steps mentioned below to enable default administrator.

1. Open Start Menu and type CMD.
   
2. Now right click on it and click on Run as administrator.
   
3. Type the following command to enable hidden administrator: net user administrator /active:yes
   
4. After enabling hidden admin login to the Hidden Admin account, refer the article on
   
   How to switch users (accounts) in Windows 10.
   

Let us know how it goes.



Regards,
