Absolutely perfect! I have been using PC's since the DOS days and this one was one of the most perplexing issues I had ever seen. This solved it.

The second method worked for me. I bought a laptop last November and got locked out of the Administrator function immediately so now it is September and it is a blessing that you taught me how to fix it. Thanks so much!.

Thank you so much my pc had been like this for months and this really helped me you have my deepest gratitude.

you are a life saver advanced option worked for me... thank you so much young man ❤

It worked. Looked everywhere and couldn't find anything. You are majestic.

YOU ARE LEGEND THANK YOU AFTER 50 VIDEOS WATCHED THIS FINALLY WORKED GOD BLESS YOU

Many thanks Kapil, Method 1 worked perfectly!

I had a massive virus that is not possible to fix/delete because it infects all files so I had to factory reset and if i restore it will come back right? Please respond and answer because I NEED HELP

Your help was very helpful and thanks to you I can use my pc again! thank you so much keep up the good work!

Unfortunately, once I click "config" it prompts me for admin rights to access

Thank you so so much!!!! Worked like a charm!

This is GOLD!! thanks so much sir! works like a charm!❤❤

when i open "Load Hive" during boot on Regedit. the main C:drive is not there, but it is on the computer on launch. i couldn't even find it typing "DISKPART" and so on, at CMD. This is very new issue only encountered with windows 11. Is there any other solutions of revealing the main C:drive so i can acess it?

You are a life saver… I cant thank you enough

will any customisation or apps on the desktop be gone?

Thank you for your humanity help🎉❤❤❤

Thank you so much 2nd method works

Tried both methods but didn't work either as in second method it don't show the local directory...can u help what should I do next

So I tried the second method after watching your other vid and it didn't work. Basically I originally wanted to enable the admin account while hiding it from the logon screen. I tried to do this so I could add security and make it hidden because I never was going to sign into it anyway. Not I can't install things because the UAC pops up and I can't change the registry back without UAC permission. Please help me fix this and include a warning in your other vid. I really don't want to do a clean install.

You are my saviour ! Thanks

Om the second method when I entert the REM_SAM it says its being used by another process please help me!

If error boot im safe mode the admin acc shows. Login as it. And. Give..ur. Perms back

You the MVP bro, i love u :D🎉

when you do a recovery on the PC will it delete all your games and apps?

I have watched plenty of video articles on google but i was so worried that i have to reset my my pc or have to reinstall the window all my will be wiped i thought ,but this 1 video helped me thanks a lot.even though i did the mistake changing the netplwiz in admin to device owner.😅 But this video helped me

Hi Kapil I have tried everything you have showed and still my laptop issue is not fixed. I am not seeing anything on the C-drive, it is blank when I try to load hive. I have lost complete admin rights and what's even more concerning is I am not able to load C drive (root drive). I have nothing backed up and am extremely worried that I would lose all my content. Any help is greatly appreciated.

(This device is locked by an administrator. have any of the administrators sign in to unlock it.) you have any solution of this problem please help me...??

Thank you!!!

Thank you very much saved my life ❤️❤️

you're so brilliant!

After entering key name (REM_SAM) I'm getting error saying the folder is inaccessible because it's being used by other process. How can I fix it?

it wont delete any data right???

Man this helped a lot thank you

Thank you so much it's effective

When I try to load the hive in solution 2, it tells me that SAM is being used by another process. "Cannot Load X:\Windows\System32\config\SAM: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."

with method 2 when I click on "command prompt" it asks me for an administrator password that I don't know. Furthermore I don't have the local users and groups

There's no files inside the CbsTemp. Please help

in my situation there is only , one day last system restore point eg today is 25july it shows only 24 july system restore point

I don't see command prompt in advanced options.

Second method worked thank you for the video

Installed an app that required to be installed as a non-administrator. Problem : after switching to an user account, there was no way to become admin again. Method 2 saved my ass. Thanks a lot.

Second solution: am i supposed to ahve a profile labeled administrator? If so i dont think this worked for me

CBS Temp is empty. :( is there other way to restore my admin. account? I have two local standard accounts only in my pc. Hope you can help me. Thank you

thanks you so much bro, this error was pissing me off so hard

Both of them dont work ive tried them both multiple times and they dont work ive watched like 50 videos and nothing works does anybody have any sort of tips on what i can do? Im actually panicking that it cant be saved

What if i reset my system?

How do I re hide admin?

Thank you brother😊

I got an ASUS notebook with Windows 11 pre-installed. Non of your method worked. On the second method where need to change 11 to 10, I had a different from 11 code and changing it to 10 didn't solve the problem. Anyway, your knowledge is very impressive!
