️ Enable administrator account
In addition to the standard accounts that are limited and have administrator capability, there is a more powerful administrator account. It is disabled by default. Enable it by running "net user Administrator /active:yes" in an administrative comment prompt. This account runs without a UAC prompt and initially has no password, posing a security risk. You can use it for specific maintenance tasks to avoid repeated UAC interruptions, but it is crucial to set a password if you enable it.
