In almost all cases with consumer editions of Windows(10/11) the first 
configured user(logon) of the device is the administrator(the first 
account is an admin account) and also the administrator capable of 
creating additional Standard accounts(Lodal or Microsoft) and giving 
those accounts administrator rights.

Unless the device was purchased used with an existing admin account the 
message 'Your IT administrator has limited access' is due to the current 
admin accounts user having configured/changed Windows or one or its 
settings and/or installed 3rd party software(including presence of 3rd 
party AV/AM[1]) changing a default Windows settings.

[1] CFA requires Windows Security and its Windows Defender client and 
enabled as the AV/AM client (i.e. no other AV/AM program or app should be 
running resident and active).
