Hello Farhana,

From within the built-on Administrator account that you have enabled,
you can copy over the users files you want to back up from the old
account to be safe from the C:\Users\(old user name)" folders locations.

These two tutorials may be able to help you fix this error though so
that you can regain access to your original account.

Hope this helps,

Did you use a standard keyboard to send this or your cell phone?

Stick your texting abbreviations where the sun don't shine.
