Admin Issue Needs Correcting

Hi

How do I fix the issue as pictured below?

Admin DefaultAccount should say LaShawn, not defaultuser0

Guest should not be LaShawn as LaShawn should be Admin as mentioned above

When I start up my computer, I'm given the option of two accounts: Administrator or LaShawn

I login as LaShawn. However, I am able to login as Administrator also.

When I go into the Control Panel, User Accounts my LaShawn account is listed as Admin but when I try to use the CMD function I'm told Access Denied. So I assume it's because my account is listed as Guest, as above, despite being shown as Admin (below). 

How do I rectify this? thanks

    I see. I certainly don't want to complicate the issue. I have enough problems :-)

    But shouldn't I have at least one admin account with full control?

    Having an admin account with full control is not sufficient when modifying security settings. You also need to be the owner of the given resource (which could be a file, a folder or a registry key). In addition, existing inheritance settings frequently prevent you from modifying the settings, which is why you may need to break inheritance.

    As I mentioned, this is far from trivial.
