How can I change my standard account to administrator for windows 8

Hello

Somehow, I changed my account from administrator to a standard account and now I can't access anything whatsoever. I tried everything, I tried to access the admin command prompt. and he wouldn't let me do.  I tried to add a user, and he wouldn't let me I need permission from the admin. I tried to change my account type, I need permission to do so. I have no power. It also says on my photo account it is locked.

Any help would be appreciated... I hope that Ronnie could help me.

Thank you
