users - Dell XPS 13 Ubuntu Guest to Administrator

So, I got Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition, 2018. The laptop started fine, and then it entered the guest account.



There is no way that I can create an administrator user account. I followed the steps provided by Ubuntu.com asking to go to Settings->User Accounts->'Unlock' and then add a new user, but I can neither unlock it nor can I add a new user.



After it booted for the first time, it asked to connect to wifi internet service. And that was not successful initially. But without asking any further questions toward setting up my account, it directly went to the guest account. No administrator account was created.




N.B: Any help is appreciated. And any suggestions to refine the question are most welcome.
