    W10 disallows admin privileges of my login


    Ever since my first attempt to convert Win7 to 10, I can't write or delete anything in My Documents, getting message must be administrator. (My personal login is as administrator.) This even happened in Win 7 when I reverted back for a while. Error message asks if I want to save in My Documents instead, and then allows it (outside of my desired sub-directory). However, cannot delete files.

    :)

    Lost Administrator account

    I changed my login name and now I do not see it as an option with the other user names on the login page my pc. As I was the only one with Admin privileges I no longer have any Admin access on the pc - does anyone know how to recover my user account, or
    create an Admin user account? Note - none of the other users who can login have Admin privileges W10 disallows admin privileges of my login :(

    Admin Login

    How do I bypass/remove the admin login? I got this computer from my school and when I graduated, they let me keep it. However, they didn't remove the admin login and I don't have administrator privileges on my account. Is there a way to bypass/remove the
    administrator login in order to give myself administrator privileges?
