"Run as Administrator" freezes my pc

Hello, when i want to do something that requires "admin permission" like installing a software, opening a program or changing pc settings the "User Account Control" freezes my pc.

I hear the sound of it popping up but i don't actually see UAC window, i can still move the mouse (See picture).

To keep working on my laptop i just click on the power button it goes to sleep mode and i turn it on again.

I found some crazy suggestions online that goes as disabling UAC or running a command prompt (admin) which both require to be run as administrator xd so yeah

Thanks in advance :)

Maybe you have got too many policies. Anyway, you can try to remove UAC policies to reset it to default.

Code:

reg delete"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System" /f

There might a problem with your credentials or a corrupted user account. To reset credentials, you need to remove catroot2, it will be recreated in about an hour (causing high CPU usage, that is normal).

Code:

net stop cryptsvc
takeown /f "%WINDIR%\System32\catroot2" /a
icacls "%WINDIR%\System32\catroot2" /grant:r Administrators:F /c
ren "%WINDIR%\System32\catroot2" "catroot2.bak"
net start cryptsvc

Consent.exe hangs using - WinCert

You might need to do both options in a safe mode, since you can not as admin without UAC.

Hello thank you for your reply, I restarted my PC in safe mode and copied the codes in the command prompt, it didn't work. (see pictures below).

You have to log in to your PC with an account that are members of the admin group!

Use the account that was used to set up Windows the first time Windows was installed on your PC.

These commands can only be run by a user that a member of the administrators group.

I only have one account on my pc, and that's the one i'm currently using (the one i installed windows with).
