So I restarted my Mac (Big Sur).

After restarting, I am shown a:
name and password window

and when I typed in my user and password, it logged me into a "standard" account and not in my admin account.

Now each time i restart my mac, i am shown the same window where it asks me for my name and password but it does not log into my admin account.

I cannot delete the standard account even after being on my admin account and I am at my wit's end on this.
