Admin role not really admin

So i followed a tutorial to install wordpress offline in xampp. It's up and running but login doesn't seem to be a full admin. It says i don't have sufficient privileges when trying to install a plugin. And when trying to make a new page it only offers 'submit for review'

I used phpmyadmin to insert a another user with user level 10 and wp_capabilities a:1{s:13:"administrator";s:1:"1";} but it still says i don't have the privileges. Any help?

EDIT I just started over from scratch. I don't know how to mark a question as closed. Thanks for all the help

This post suggests that it may be an issue with the database itself, and you should run the 'repair database' feature via phpMyAdmin.
