You don’t need to delete those user accounts.

The new users are using the system-wide Guix at
/run/current-system/profile/bin/guix, which appears to be broken.  So
you could let user2 and user3 use user1’s Guix, which you said is
working fine.

as user2 just run

    /var/guix/profiles/per-user/user1/current-guix/bin/guix pull

and you should then get a new Guix that works fine.

Same with reconfigure.  Run that with the working Guix to get a new Guix
for the whole system which doesn’t suffer from this problem.
