Three Thoughts:


A. First-things-First - Back Up your Mac:

Create a Time Machine backup of your Mac, so that you can have something to restore your Mac from, should anything go wrong from here on out.



B. To Create a New User Account:

Go Here: Set Up Users, Guests, and Groups on Mac - Apple Support



C. To Start Over with a New User Account:
