Computer Management XP home issue?

I run XP home on my laptop and have 1 account (my name) that is designated as an administrative account. However, when I try to use advanced settings, I cannot see or perform some advanced tasks that I know are there such as user permissions and what not. If I reboot the computer in safe mode, I can login under the adminstrator account which is not visible at the normal welcome screen and perform all of the tasks that I previously described. Is there a way to allow my normal login to have the same privillages as the safe mode admin account? Also, I cannot find the users tab that is normally in computer management. Is that exclusive to XP pro?
 
That's how things work in Home Edition. I don't think it is possible to change it.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
