  1. Windows 10 - How can I hide the admin account without disabling it?


    I want to hide the admin account from login without disabling it.Disabling it via computer management is not helping me because then I can't run programs as admin.Hiding it through registry is also not helping me because when I'm logged in as a normal user and I try to run CMD as admin I don't have the option to enter the admin name and password.The option "Interactive logon don't display username at sign-in" in Secpol is also not helpful because everytime I logoff I need to write the user name.

    Windows 10 disabled admin account


    Hi

    Thank you for coming back to me, i have explored all the options you have suggested, but in each instance i an asked to do the task with elevated privileges. The only active account on this laptop is the standard user, which is what i use to login with.

    I hope this makes sense.
