Removing HomeUsers

Hello,

I run netplwiz. Under the user names list, I have my account designation listed twice. Once as admin and once as homeuser. Under the properties tab for the one listed as homeuser, it is marked as "other" (homeuser). I am the only user/admin and I do not
use any groups or connections with other computers in a group. Having my account listed again and marked as homeuser seems unnecessary and redundant. I would like to know if I can remove the non- admin homeuser marked as "other" without it affecting my account
or computer in any way. I have already removed homegroupuser$ and I just want to know if I can do the same thing without that negatively affecting my admin account with the same name.

Thanks
