You must be using an account which is not limited

Answer 2

You can't that is the reason for the restriction. You could wipe out the entire OS and reload is as adminstrator but that will only give you access to that particular computer. There are ways to go about getting access to the admin account but if access has been restricted especially on a network it is for a reason. Perhaps you could request permission from the admin? Usually on a network if a user sets something up like an account they can set the permissions for that account over what that account has created but not other data created at other levels and other users.

Answer 3

Go to the Start menu > Control panel > User Accounts > Change an account > Choose the account you wish to change > Change account type.

This is of course if you're on the administrator account, otherwise you can't make any altercations to this.
