Did you start whatever your terminal program is with "Run as Administrator" (I'm not sure how this is translated in the French version of Windows). Remember, in Windows, even when your account is a member of the Administrator group, it does not have those permissions by default. You have to ask for the elevated permission with "Run as Administrator".
I tried to update the /etc/passwd to assign my user the Admin group (as I have in Windows), but then I got :
Don't do this.
