Windows separates user accounts into Administrator and Standard levels. Standard accounts can make changes that don’t affect others on the computer, such as personalization options or installing software for themselves. However, you need an Administrator account to change the clock, access protected system files, add users, and take similar actions. Perhaps you’ve just tried to access something and were told you don’t have administrator rights.
