Windows 10: Disable built in Administrator Account and it's Profile SRX1502571152ID

A Microsoft support technician had me to enable the local built in Administrator account pursuant to SRX1502571152ID. I NO longer need the built-in Administrator account or the profile it created. However, I cannot find how to disable the account and how to remove the associated profile. I have tried speaking with Microsoft Support but I am getting absolutely nowhere! This is very, very, very frustrating. I am currently on hold for over 35 minutes waiting. I need some help please.

Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


Hello,
Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
