    When I start up in safe mode, I have 2 admins. I can't delete either, from either sign in. When I startup normally, I only have one admin.

    You have a SYSTEM Admin and an Admin you created. You shouldn't be able to delete the System one.....

    But, if you log into the System Admin->Control Panel->USER Accounts->you should be able to delete the other one.

    I don't want to lose my files in the admin user. And the system admin won't come up in a normal windows startup. It didn't give me the option to delete either account from safe mode.
