Hi As was stated, only an administrator can change an account type. So log off of your new profile and log on with your old administrator profile. Go to control panel and user accounts. When you're logged on as an administrator, there will be a link to manage another account. Select that link, then find and select your new profile. Find and activate change account type and set it to administrator. Now log off of your old profile and log on with your new profile. Since you are now an administrator, you will see the manage another account link. Choose that link, choose your old profile and then find and choose delete account.
