Note: When you can use the command prompt enable the Administrator account, as long as your current user is an Administrators group.

1 – On the search box type: Command Prompt

For this example, I use Windows 11. You can press or click on the Windows icon (Start) and type the command prompt in the search box, it will show the command prompt app. And then click on Run as administrator
