macOS 15.1 update issues

After updating to 15.1 on my MacPro 6,1 with a lot of effort (not sure why this one was so difficult) Updated plenty before. It is now asking me for username and password. After some digging I realized that my admin permissions had been removed some how. Not sure how. After researching most say it happens when you change the user name of the account. I did not do that. I only updated to 15.1 using the usb installer method since the last OTA update turned into a mess.

I tried the trick of going into recovery and typing in resetpassword into terminal but in the prompt to change the password and I select the volume there is no users in the volume.

Right now I am trying to install it again, but any thoughts? Really do not want to backup and erase right now. I don’t have the time and I need the admin permissions because I need it for some of my personal development projects I am working on. This is not my main work computer but my main personal computer.
