Hello mangwe263,
If you have created local users, you cannot create shares that have the same name with the local users. This is because local users get their own private shares (also known as home shares), each local user you create has private share and that private share is the same with the local user name. Name of a share that was created manually should not be the same with any local user account name.
If you are having trouble with this, it is better you contact support line. I saw your profile and you are entitled to their free phone support which is very limited to number of days. As of today, you have 67 days left for it, I suggest you take advantage of it because support use a tool where they can remotely access your computer with you on the line and configure it for you while you are watching.
Regards,
