Sometimes you can face a problem when a certain program requires administrator rights. There are other reasons that lead users to search for an answer to the question of how to start a computer as an administrator. There are several answers to this question.
Instructions
Step 1
Using Safe Mode
So, if your computer is on, restart it. When the first letters and numbers appear on a black background, press the F8 key on your keyboard. You will see a screen listing the different ways to boot the operating system. Select "Safe Mode".
Step 2
After selecting the desired item, you will automatically enter the operating system under an administrator account. You don't need to do anything else. Unless you will be asked to enter a password, if one you asked when you changed the settings for the "Administrator" account.
Step 3
Without using the welcome screen
If instead of the welcome screen you see the "Windows Login" window (where there are only two fields - "User" and "Password", as well as 3 buttons - "Ok" "Cancel" "Options"), everything is simple here too. Enter in the first field "Administrator", and in the second password. If you did not specify a password, leave this field blank.
Step 4
If the operating system starts up without requiring you to enter a username and password, do this: wait for the desktop to load, click the "Start" -> "Shutdown" menu. Next, in the item "Select the desired action" select "End session …" and click "OK". Enter your username, that is, "Administrator" and password.
Step 5
Using the welcome screen
Wait for the welcome screen to load with a list of available accounts, press the Ctrl and alt="Image" keys simultaneously and without releasing them, press the Del key 2 times. The "Windows Login" window should appear on the screen. Now enter your username and password.
Step 6
By the way, in some cases, the administrator account may be called differently. More precisely, it is called the same - "Administrator", but spelled in English - Administrator.
