below steps to resolve this issue.

|
1. Navigate to your
local security policy on your Windows 10 workstation – You can do this by
typing secpol.msc
at a search/run/command prompt.

Policies/Security Options navigate to “User Account Control Admin
Approval
Mode for the Built-in
Administrator account“

·
Create
a DWORD value if it doesn’t already
exist called FilterAdministratorToken
·
Set
the value to 1

registry and make an additional change:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\UIPI\

Change
the Default string key to 0x00000001(1)

Also,
in addition to the above, make sure your User Account Control Setting is set
to the third level from the bottom. To get to UAC, go to your Windows
10 search and type uac. It should come up as “Change
User Account Control Settings“.
