Brian,
Would you consider making a video showing how to set up the Administrator account in Windows 10. I would like to see how to get all the content (desktop icons, folders, etc.) that I get on the limited user (admin) account I originally set up Windows on. Only a few files are seen. I asked on the forum for an explanation, but, unfortunately the link I read doesn't really go into any detail explaining how to do it. I want access to all my normal files when I log in as Administrator that I have on my C:/users/(account name)/desktop account. Sure would appreciate some help. If you don't want to make a video, would you please explain step by step how I need to proceed? Thank you, Sir.

Sorry Paul, not sure I understand what you want me to show. Administrator is by default in Windows?

Yes. That would work too. I don't think a lot of average users know how to get the administrator account set up in Windows 10, and definitely on how to have all the same content put in place that they have on their limited account. I would like to hear exactly why the admin account can be dangerous and as you said how to protect yourself. I need more info on using the admin account, myself.
