I was trying to activate the administrator account and a message popped up telling me to enter administrator password and click yes but there was nowhere to enter password and the yes button is disabled out. I can't do anything on control panel neither because its not letting me. I have tried everything and nothing seems to work

You must be logged in as an Admin user, not a standard user,. to enable the Hidden Administrator account or make changes in the Control Panel.
Go to Start/Search and type netplwiz and press enter to find out what group your login profile is in

Open a command prompt or powershell and run:
net localgroup administrators
What are the users listed under members?
