  1. Windows 10 (Administrator Rights)


    Hi,
    In the Control Panel (Users) i have administrator rights, but when i try to do some changes or save a file (for example on c:/windows/............../etc), it appears on screen "acess denied". Is there a way to solve it, like super administrator as it was on windows 8?
    Thanks

    :)

  3. Windows 10 administrator rights

    Hi.





    Welcome to Microsoft Community.



    Let us restart the computer in Windows safe mode, log into the first admin account and check if you are able to access the files and delete the 2nd admin account.

    Let us refer to the following article to restart the computer in safe mode

    Boot Windows 10 in Safe Mode



    If issue persist let us restart the computer in Windows clean boot and check.

    Refer to the article below to start the computer in Clean Boot. (The suggestions in the article also applies to windows 10 as well)

    Welcome to the forum.

    There is the built in Administrator account but you really should not be using that for general use. It is a security risk and you will find there is much that will not work.

    With UAC enabled even an admin level account has by default only standard account rights. Full admin rights are available only on request and only temporarily. This is a security measure that goes back to Vista. Disabling UAC is not recommended and particularly difficult in Windows 10.
