By mistake I removed administration privileges from my account under

Are you saying that in the "User Manager" section of "System Settings" you have
unchecked the
box "Enable administrator privileges for this user"?
If so, they why not just check it again?
Once you remove adminstrator rights from yourself, you don't have permission to
change it again.
Have you tried it???
I have....
I deleted the Admin Priv, Reboot, and then enabled. I was prompted for the
root PW and it does as expected.
Now, if one has not enabled the root user, then there is more to be done.
Sure, but by default there is no root password and the user doesn't have
permission to change anything.
FWIW, the "System Settings" process that I'm talking about simply places the user in the
"wheel"
group.
Yes, that's what administrator rights means for a user.
