You might ask the teenager you lent your computer to what password they used/created. That should give you a way to reset the password and give you the ability to move folders, add apps, etc.

I have deleted his account and I am the sole person and Administrator. Every time I try to move a folder (or sometimes open an App), I get a message saying that I don't have privileges. When I click on the icon for the hard drive to Get Info, it shows that I have Read and Write privileges. Can someone tell me what is wrong and how to fix this? It is quite annoying!
