    Windows 8 How to Gain Full Permissions on Windows 8 Pro for Settings Changes

    It really bugs me that I can't change some settings, like fast startup, because I don't have permission. I am the only user on my home computer and Windows 8 tells me to see the system administrate. I want FULL permissions on my Windows 8. Anyone know how to fix it? Windows 8 pro 64bit.
