Alan,
[this is the second of my two recent posts and they might be separated by a page break so do look at the bottom of page 1 if necessary to see the first post]
That first diagram [the one that shows the orange title bar on your command prompt window] worries me.
- In that diagram, I can see that you were in fact attempting to alter a property of the user account that is called "Administrator" - that is what that line containing ... where name="Administrator" ... actually means. That is not your Admin account, it is the user name of the Built-In Admin and you really ought not to alter any of its properties. You were saved on that occasion because you did not have the authority for the command you were trying to run [so nothing was changed].
- That diagram does not show the full response to your net localgroup administrators command - the photo does not show anything after the Members line and it is the data after that line that matters. You have already said that NewAdminPrimary is your only Admin account so I would expect only that and Administrator to be listed below that line. If you had also created another Admin account then it would also be listed & it could be used to rescue the situation.
