    You will need to take ownership of the folder as you won't have permission to open it

    Hello Oxlzlope, :)

    If you haven't already, you might see if you may be able to delete the user profile while signed in to the built-in Administrator account.

    You should be able to use Option Four below to enable the built-in Administrator account at boot.

    Once you have, sign in to the built-in Administrator account, and make your new account "Dan" an administrator.
