Administrator account isn't a 'real' administrator :(

I already have mine enabled, but can he move out the Admin folders in the manner he proposes?

I am thinking on the same lines as the original poster. My "normal login account" is an Administrator "Standard User", but I want it to be an Administrator "Administrator", is that possible?

I enabled the Hidden Administrator account and logged in, but it will not even allow me to change my "normal login account" to Administrator "Administrator". So again, is that even possible?

There are only 2 types of user apart from the actual Admin account which is the only one with "supreme" status - other accounts can't be created with its level of access. The other user accounts are "Standard" and "Administrator" type users, the latter however, does not have the same level as the actual Administrator account.

If your machine is controlled by someone else then I doubt you'll be able to change your status anyway.

Even signed in as an Administrator-level user one often needs Admin status to do certain things, that's why there's that option in a right-click "Run as Administrator". That's the way around it.

Well, log in as an Administrator type user and you will have most of the power and anything needing higher authority is where that right-click option comes in.

The way to make your user account similar to that of the built-in admin account is to disable or change some of the settings for UAC.

By default, the builtin account is set to "automatically elevate" for uac stuff, members of the admin group are set to "prompt for consent" and standard users are set to "prompt for credentials"

There are specific GPO settings just for how to treat the built in account, how to treat members of the admin group, and standard users.

You then can possibly leave your machine open to all the issues that people used to accuse XP of....backdoor holes, so be careful.
