Can I delete Administrator folder in users?
Yes, it will be safe to delete the “C:UsersAdministrator” folder. It will basically delete the current profile of the built-in Administrator account. If you should enable the account in the future, a new default profile will be created again for it when you sign in to that account the first time.
