how to change administrator username and password

Currently, the Settings app doesn’t offer an option to edit usernames. There are two ways to work around this limitation.

Method 1: Classic Control Panel

Find and open the classic Control Panel. One way to do this is to press Windows + R and then type Control then hit Enter.

Open the User Accounts control panel, then click Manage another account.

Click the account you want to edit.

Click Change the account name (in this same window, you can change the password too)

Enter the correct username for the account then click Change Name.

Method 2: User Accounts Advanced Control Panel

There is another way you can do it. Press Windows key + R, type: netplwiz or control userpasswords2 then hit Enter. Select the account then click Properties.

Select the General tab then enter the user name you want to use. Click Apply then OK, then click Apply then OK again to confirm the change.

CHANGE PASSWORD

Open Start > Settings > Accounts > Sign in options

Under Password, click Change

Enter the new password

hope you can help me..

The pop you’re getting is because you’re not logged in with an administrator account.
Try this.
Go to start -settings - accounts.
From there you should see your account you need to set it as an administrator.
