Device Manager Windows 10 20H2 says "you are logged in as a standard user" but I am admin and domain admin

Domain joined PC where I am both admin at the PC and the Domain Admin and on my PC Device Manger says you are logged in as a standard user . Also merging .reg files to change back stuff that Win 10 updates set to defaults (non-critical, almost all cosmetic) results with error that some items not updated because of insufficient rights.
