    Why is my Admin access overlooked?


    Hi, i have been having problems along these lines since windows 10 hence my switch to windows 11, recently i have found that in my settings it tells me my IT Admin doesn't have full permissions to everything which is a huge bummer as i would love to deal with my device threats; i have looked at a help thread by DaveM that helped another person who had the same problems as me but those solutions haven't worked for me. It says i don't have a Microsoft account connected which isn't the case, i use the Microsoft account connected to play Minecraft on my device, no matter what i do it is met with a

    Cannot access shared network drive


    Personally, I wouldnt use Everyone. If anyone hacks into you, they have full access to everything and can demolish everything on your raid. I would rather set up accounts and access separately for each person. That way, I know who did all that damage. In the end with a little extra work, I feel more secure by using Authenticated Users.


    If this helps.
    step 1 create non-microsoft account and without email and address without admin rights
    step 2 share a drive or folder to specific user account (if Everyone is listed, remove it)
    step 3 set security > add Authenticated Users (if more than 1 account) or add specific users
    step 3a remove Everyone from list
    step 3b uncheck full control and write for all items listed except SYSTEM and Admin account.
    step 4 right click Start > Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Shares ... to verify settings and change anything else. You can also see the number of connections to each share here.

    Windows 10 no admin access

    Hi,

    We'd like to learn more about the issue that you recently encountered. For us to provide the troubleshooting steps, please clarify the following:

    • When you mentioned that you have no admin access, does it mean that you can sign in to your own user profile but the privilege is limited?
    • Have you made any changes or installed updates before this issue occurred?
    • Did you encounter an error message/code when you tried to restore your PC?
    To also answer your inquiry about the Admin account, there is a hidden built-in Admin account that you use in case of emergency. We will provide the instructions on how to access the hidden Admin account once we determine the root cause of your concern.

    We look forward to your response.
