Theoretically yes. But Windows may go "you don't own this folder, so nope", but you can override that.

and how do i do that my friend?

when i go to the (f)<users i see only only the public folder and i dont see the user folder

The other user folder should be visible. At worst from what I've done, Windows will basically go "You don't have access to this folder, would you like to get permissions?" and it'll give it to you.

You can try going to View -> Options -> "View" tab and making sure "Hidden files and folders" is set to to "Show hidden files, folders, and drives"

 

If it still doesn't come up, it's likely been deleted.
