Helper ISetting myself as the report server administrator
I am good now. I went into the SQL Server DB and made a few ownership and permission level changes. I am now able to Manage folders, add roles & users, and go to Site Settings to give myself Site Administration. I also made some Branding changes for our environment.

Helper IDinesh,
Apologize for the delay, I've had other projects going on as well and was unable to get back to this one until late yesterday. So I am still in the same boat as before. I uninstalled Power BI Report Server, restarted the server, logged back into the server with my admin credentials, right-clicked run as administrator (just for good measure) the May 2025 Power BI Report Server installer, clicked Close once done (versus Configure Reporting Services), & then opened SSRS to configure Power BI portal. I left basic settings as possible but created a new DB & connection. When I went to the portal URL on the server browser (logged in as the admin that installed the software) I am still getting the insufficient permissions to add roles & users. Not sure what I am missing.
