Security… displays Full control and the System denies … “run as administrator| or change permissions, or change the PC name, workgroup, etc.
You cannot use the way to change AS AN ADMIN because form the beginning, despite being “seen” as admin, “the System” gives no access.
Looks that it is upset (!)… because the Admin took all the ownership on anything and removed the System… the System appeared after restart!
