Having trouble adding new user with access rights in Win10

I have win10 pro installed on my laptop. I added myself as a new user with admin rights, however the system won't allow me to access some folders (error message indicated that I don't have admin rights). How can I fix this? What do i need to do to have unlimited access to all of my computer?

6.A new window will appear on your screen. Such a window contains a list of all the user accounts available on your computer.
7.Select the user account you want to give total control over your Windows 7 and click the Edit button.
8.Now, tick the checkbox labeled “Total Control” and press OK.

Hope this helps you.

Thank you for replying. I followed your steps, but when I clicked the advanced tab, I got the attached screen shot. When I clicked the change button on that advanced screen, I got the second window (screen shot attached). The user I am trying to give total control to is "Admin (ASUS-G55\KGJ)". Although it shows on that screen the user has full control, certain permissions (access to folders) are still being denied.

Even if you turn on show hidden files in Windows Explorer some files will remain hidden. These files are super hidden. Set the registry value below to 1.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"SuperHidden" = 1

You will need to reboot after changing this setting for it to work.
