    Logging-in as an Admin user

    Since I upgraded to Windows 10 I can no longer log-in as the Admin user. I am the sole user of the machine and as far as I can remember did not change my admin settings. The outcome of this is that I can no longer update any programmes as I am constantly
    asked to log -in as an Admin user yet can find no way to do that.

    Windows 10 User Log-In Issue

    Hi,

    I apologize for not addressing you in a timely manner. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    I would suggest you to delete all the user account apart from the one which you are able to log in with Admin rights. Install all pending Windows and driver updates.
    Updates are additions to software that can help prevent or fix problems, improve how your computer works, or enhance your computing experience. Follow the steps below to create new user account and check if that helps.

    • Press “Windows Key + R".
    • Type “netplwiz”.
    • Click on Add and follow the onscreen instructions.

    Keep us posted on Windows related queries and we will be happy to assist you further.
