Hello I had the same problem, but what I noticed was that I was part of a to a domain connected to server from my training class.

It allowed me to either clear Administrator password and or unlock the Administrator account. However when I did so it give me access with net user administrator command, but when I disabled the account again with the same command it locked my administrator account again.
