I need to use the MS Media Creation Tool but it doesn't allow me unless I'm signed in as an Administrator account.

The MCT says that I need to use this tool by signing in as an Administrator.

Don't understand why because I am already running as a local Administrator account along with Administrator Protection turned on.

In addition, there is already a User Profile folder named ADMIN_username

Can I actually sign in as my ADMIN_username?

If so, what would be the password for this Administrator virtual token ADMIN_username?
