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:

  1. Login: As an Administrator
  2. Save: Your files to an external device
  3. Create: an Administrator Account
  4. Log Out: of the current user
  5. Log in: to the new Administrator
  6. Transfer: all files to the new user
  7. Delete: this current account.
  8. Use: the new user from then on out

You should be set from there.
