Administrator account issues Solved

Question

Hello, I can no longer accept the User Account Control (administrator), it tells me "To continue, type an administrator password, and then click Yes." except the bar to enter the password doesn’t appear and the Yes button is grayed out so I cannot click on it. I also tried restarting in safe mode but when I click on Settings > Update and Security > Recovery Advanced startup, upon restarting the only option it offers me is to turn off my PC. I also tried to activate the hidden administrator account but without being able to run the command prompt as administrator, I can’t do anything. Thank you for your help.

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 49.0.2623.87

Hello,

try this:

Press the "Windows" and "R" keys, or right-click on the Start button and then select Run.
Type: control userpasswords2 (copy and paste) or type: netplwiz
Select your account from the list
Uncheck the line "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer."
Then click OK.

Then type your password twice and confirm (usual password or Microsoft account password)

Restart your computer

So you are not the administrator of the PC

Try safe mode to change your account and make it an administrator

Safe mode:
When you are on your session do:
- Ctrl + ALT + Delete
From there, hold down the SHIFT key until the procedure is complete. (SHIFT is the up arrow key, bottom left of the keyboard)
- Click on the power button at the bottom right of the screen, click on "Restart"
You are now on a blue page
Release the SHIFT key
Click on Choose an option
Troubleshoot
Settings
Restart (at the bottom of the window)
Choose F4 (safe mode)
Let Windows load
Once on the desktop, right-click on the Start button or press Windows+X on the keyboard
Control Panel
User Account
Change your account type
Check the administrator box
