First identify whether you have administrator right on your computer not?

Go to the run command and type compmgmt.msc and press enter. Go to local
user and groups and then go to user and then check at members of tab

If you are not administrator you cannot add self designate yourself as an
administrator

Is it home PC or corporate PC ?
