It is quite easy to start PowerShell under Windows 10 as administrator or as default user!
Just use the key combination Windows + X and select in the context menu the entry:
"Windows-PowerShell (Administrator)"
or just "" Windows-PowerShell "" to start it as Windows 10 Standard user.
(... see Image-1 Point 1 to 3)
PS:
Optionally, you can open the Windows-X menu in Windows-10 via right-click on the Windows logo!

Info:
For system-relevant changes under Windows 10 and for certain folder accesses, you, as an administrator, must start Windows 10 PowerShell in order to be granted all rights. In conclusion, one should be very careful with what you do in PowerShell with such access rights. The system changes may affect the system, which, if poorly understood, could lead to system failures with PowerShell. All the way to complete system crashes and non-functionality of Windows 10, or the Windows you are working on, whether it's a Windows desktop, tablet, Surface Pro / Go, or even a server operating system.
