      If you run into issues, then there are other options… So no need to worry. (y)

        You have to be in the Admin account and completely logged out of the other two accounts for this to work properly. I should have mentioned that before.

          Type C:\Users into the windows search on the start menu.
          Then double click your main user folder.
          Organize – Select All – Copy.
          Now double click on the newly created account folder.
          Organize – Select All – Right Click selected folders – Delete.
          Click Organize again then select paste.

          This is gonna take a long time…

          When you get done with the file transfer then you can log out of the admin account, then log into the new account you created… Hopefully all of the settings you had will be transfer… This is the easiest way that I know of to perform this action, have done it on several machines without issue. When I was unable to solve issues such as yours.
          what do you mean by Organize

              Then follow the instructions for the settings transfer.

              Also, what I mean by organize is this… It may be different in windows 10.

              EDIT:: Or you can simply highlight the items with your mouse, and copy that way…

                  If you have further issues, then you can run this tool from your main account. In normal or safe mode, then reboot the machine. I’d prefer if you tried it from normal mode first.

                  Rkill.scr

                      OK, if this fails… Then go ahead with the file settings transfer.

                          Yes, and did it solve the issue?

                              Go ahead and transfer the settings to the new account. We will go from there.
