Generally speaking if you set up a mac to new or used, correctly, you probably
already have created an Admin user account in that Mac's system.. Also some
users set 'second user account at lower level' and only use Admin for system
upgrade and update; then do not enable automatic login to be more secure.

To refresh what that is and how to add or change the account status, there
are several Support articles in the Apple site; and some elsewhere that can
also help understand aspects of this. ~ You may be able to search your Mac
built-in Help to see related articles, online; or Support topics in the Mac.
{The user who already has an Apple ID associated with their own name and
has purchase history, with Apple, could also sign online via icloud; in some
instances, could be useful to restore lost user passwords to owned devices.
That would be separate topic, though related indirectly, to your question.}
