An admin user with the username […] was created outside of WordPress

I transferred the database + uploads folder from a staging server to production server and in Wordfence scans this issue is shown:

An admin user with the username […] was created outside of WordPress

Why does Wordfence detect this issue?
Dismissing the issue as solved won’t prevent it reappearing in the next scan.
Creating a new user and deleting the old one is too tedious/risky for me.

How can I change the user/database to make the user legitimate?
