but somehow my Administrator User got deleted, so I have another user, but I cannot view my files from my Administrator User because a while ago I made it so that if you go on another user, you can see the file names but you cannot actually access what is in them. Does anyone know how i can get into these files? Keep in mind that my Administrator User is completely deleted.

I doubt it's deleted, windows has an option to not show the administrator account at the login screen and that probably got toggled. When you're at the windows XP quick logon screen, hit ctrl alt del to get the real windows login screen and type Administrator in the user name.
if you encrypted your files, you're out of luck thereis NO way to unencrypt them if you've really deleted the user account.
on windows XP your administrator files are in
c:\documents and settings\administrator
on windows NT
c:\winnt\profiles\administrator
on windows 9X
c:\windows\profiles\administrator

If that doesn't work go to Goole and pput "administrator account deleted " there area bunch of answers.
P.S. You might try to search for this in old Yahoo Answers ther were alot of useful looking results. You can get it back! Keep researching! Good luck!
P.P.S. You might add XP to that search I think the link above is for Server 2003. Sorry! I liked the answer about toggling accounts. hopefully that's it!

are you sure... i dont think it is possible to completley delete the administrator account. booting into safe mode always shows the adminstrator account. to boot into safe mode restart computer then before the xp screen press/hold F8 and select safe mode it might take some time to load
