Is it possible to view a 'user account' name history

[mhj]

I'm trying to fix a corrupted user profile using the Microsoft procedure at Fix a corrupted user profile - Windows Help.

In 2010 I created a second administrator user account. Exactly why escapes me now. However, the account name I use at the login isn't listed in the C\ drive User directory. There are two administrator accounts listed. One of which is my original admin account. I suspect the other is the second admin account which has been renamed (?). Following the Microsoft procedure, it snags when I attempt to open My Documents which advises that "'My Documents' is unavailable. Access denied". Does anyone have experience with the Microsoft procedure or retrieving an account name history?

What do you get when in cmd: net user or net localgroup Administrators

cmd Net user and cmd localgroup administrators both return the same administrator accounts as contained in the "C\ User" directory. My logon admin account is not listed. I'm going to try renaming that admin account to the C\User directory listing and see what mischief I can bring about.
