Access denied in Vista even when using builtin administrator account

I'm logged in with the local administrator account in Vista Ultimate.

But even then I have problem with some permissions. Tried today to use the command:
set time /setsntp:servername and got:
"System error 5 has occurred.
Access Denied"

There are several other things which does not work either but I think this is enough for you to give me some possible sollutions to this.

OK, it does work running the command prompt as administrator. Is there a way to do that by default, without rightclick as you describe?

There are also a bunch of other things giving me permissions problem (do not remember exactly what now). Couldn't I rise the account to "highest permissions level" once for all in some way?
