Windows 10: Should I delete one of these User profiles?

I have a user profile with my name, plus one called Default and one called Owner, plus one called Public.


Do these all serve a purpose, or take up a lot of room on my laptop?


Should I delete some of the them?


I am not sure which one is the Administrator account.

The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in. User profile cannot be loaded.

Hello,

When attempting to login to my computer, I get the following message:

"The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in.

User profile cannot be loaded."

I referred to this Help article,You receive a "The User Profile Service failed the logon” error
message,

but the only difference is I only have one user profile on this computer. So, I can't login with another user to go through the steps listed in this post.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
