  2. Double-click User Accounts, click Manage User Accounts, and then click Add....
  3. Enter a name and domain for the administrator account. Click Next >.
  4. In Windows 10, select Administrator.

    In Windows 8.x and earlier, select the radio button titled Other:, and then, from the drop-down menu, choose Administrators.

  5. Click Finish, which will take you back to the "User Accounts" dialog box. Click OK.
