➡️ There's a hidden Administrator account with complete access. I'll show you how to enable it and discuss why you shouldn't use it very often, if at all.
➡️ Enable the administrator account
Besides the standard limited and administrator-capable accounts, there’s a more powerful administrator account. It’s disabled by default. Enable it by running “net user administrator /active:yes” in an administrative comment prompt. This account runs without UAC prompts and initially has no password, which poses a security risk. You can use it for specific maintenance tasks to avoid repeated UAC interruptions, but it’s crucial to set a password if you activate it.
