***''I am assuming you don't have the Administrator account activated:''***

== How to Enable the Built-in Administrator in Windows 10 via Recovery Options ==

Enabling the built-in administrator account can be done through Windows Recovery Environment (aka “Recovery Options”), if Windows doesn’t boot normally or if you’re unable to login to your account.

''***Note:*** If a perfectly working Windows 10 computer with an administrator user account already present and working correctly, you won’t have the need to enable the built-in administrator (“Administrator”) account. This article assumes that you’re either unable to start Windows 10 normally, or unable to login to your administrator-level user account for some reason.''

''For example, here is one situation (lost administrator account password or lost the admin privileges) where you’ll need to activate the built-in administrator account. For more information, check out article [link|https://www.winhelponline.com/blog/locked-user-account-lost-admin-privileges-rescue/|Fix: Lost Administrator Rights or Password in Windows 10|new_window=true]''

=== Step 1: Login to Advanced Recovery Options (Windows RE) ===

# From the sign-in screen in Windows 10, press and hold the SHIFT key on the keyboard.
# With the ***SHIFT key*** still pressed, click the ***Power button*** and then click ***Restart***.
# In the Recovery Options menu, click Troubleshoot, and then click Advanced Options.[br]

[br]

===   ===

=== Step 2: Enable the Built-in Administrator account from Windows RE ===

1.      In the Advanced options dialog, click ***Command Prompt***.[br]

 

2.      In the Command Prompt window, type the following command and press ENTER:

[code]net user administrator /active:yes[/code]

3.      Type ``exit`` to return to Recovery Options menu.

4.      Exit and Continue to Windows 10.

=== Step 3: Login to built-in Administrator account ===

# When you get to the sign-in screen, hold the SHIFT key down while you select Power icon, and click Restart.
# Your computer restarts to the “Choose an option” screen.
# Select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
# After your computer restarts, you’ll see a list of options. Select 4 or F4 to start your PC in Safe Mode, or select 5 or F5 for Safe Mode with Networking.
# Log in as Administrator from Safe mode.
# Carry out the administration tasks using this account, such as creating a new administrator account or fixing registry or file system permissions etc.
# For security reasons, it’s better to disable it once you finish all your tasks using this account. To disable the built-in Administrator account, open an [link|https://www.winhelponline.com/blog/open-elevated-command-prompt-windows/|elevated Command Prompt|new_window=true] window and then type:

[code]net user administrator /active:no[/code]

That’s it! Use your built-in administrator account very scarcely.
