Cannot delete the folder of the user

Original title:

Help me, I can't delete the user record, even I have loged on as an administrator. I used Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

Please give feed back imiedietly

If you are referring to in the record of user directly under the users profile folder, it is protected.  The only way to delete normally is to delete the account of user via the control panel / user accounts and choose to also delete user files when you are prompted.
It would be foolish if you want to keep the user account, but delete the folder of the user.
What you trying to accomplish?

  • Cannot delete the user folder?

    I can't delete the folder \\JONESPC\Users\Jack2 I tried to use regedit, but just ended up with a new \\JONESPC\Users\Jack2.JONESP folder

    This problem occurred when I tried to change the username to my main account I could do successfully by using the mode without fail & regedit
    But in the process, I created a new account I wanted to delete it later
    I went through the normal process via Add or remove user accounts & then click on delete the user account & then remove all files
    But this folder Jack2 remains!

    Then try:

    1. Safe boot mode.
    2. Log in as Jack.
    3. Property to enter the profile folders that bothers you - see here.
    4. Rename the folders unwanted profile by adding the suffix .junk.
    5. Wait a week.
    6. If all goes well, remove the folders of .junk.
  • Cannot delete the user (PCName) to network on the Windows 8.1 desktop locations

    Hello

    I decided to build a new office and built once connected to my home network and "found" an old PC and quickly added 3 icons "Windows Media Player" under the network locations tab of the computer in Windows Explorer.

    Each icon is labeled with (pcname) username, where username is a user account on the old PC, for example Paul (OurOldPC).

    I am now trying to delete these 3 locations 'network' as this old PC is is more work, but try as I might I have not been able to do.

    It seemed that it would be easy, I right click and then clicked on 'remove the instrument. He asked if I was sure that I wanted to remove it and I clicked on Yes. However, it is still there!

    I had a glance through the registry and users/Paul/AppData but impossible to spot anything that had the air associated with the 3 locations.

    I'd appreciate help on what is frustrating to have these 3 places to hang out.

    When you connect under a different name, that the locations do not show, then it seems to be something specific to my account.

    How can I remove these 3 places?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Paul

    1. You are using cable or wireless network connection?
    2. You use a third-party antivirus program?
    3. You get the error message?

    Hi John,.

    In response to your questions above:

    I use a wired network

    I use AVG Antivirus

    I have an error message.

    While previously the solution I tried the regedit approach, but there is no profile other than the one that had an entry by name: ProfileName: data network.

    Have to admit that I was not deleted as I was a little hesitant that it would be useful.

    What I was doing well, it's once again try to remove office (x) via Windows Explorer.

    I already said that right-click on the icon and slide on "Remove the instrument" has not removed the device, but I have since found that the selection of the device then goes to the "Media access" icon and selecting 'Disconnect from the media server' work.

    I think I was probably made the wrong way before. My second approach has worked.

    Thank you very much for you help in this area and I'm sorry to have wasted your time.

  • Cannot delete the user

    Hello

    I managed to get the Download CSV feature work by twisting the adobe example csv file. Now, I think I've cracked it I am trying to remove the test users so I can start over, but it is not letting me delete "managers". Please notify:

    Hi James,

    As a bonus, you can not remove a handler directly. To remove a handler, you must first remove all employees under him, and then remove the handler.

    Just a note, a user once deleted, is not added to the first.

    Kind regards

  • Cannot delete the folder where the backup is saved.

    I tried to regain control and possession but still get an error Windows cannot delete the folder. and with two options, "try again" and "Cancel".

    Can you help me? This file is large and takes place on my hard drive.

  • Impossible to remove an unknown account, get the error 'cannot delete the unknown account because this object inherits permissions from its parent.

    I have several programs that when I go to security there is an unknown account and when I try to delete unknown account I get this message that you cannot delete the Unknown(S-1...) account because this object inherits from its parent perssions. To delete the Unknown(S-1...) account, you must prevent this object from inheriting permissions. Turn off the option for the inheritance of permissions and then try to delete the Unknown(S-1...) account again. I tried the edit and advance features in respect of security without success. Why have I not control over security permissions?

    Found a solution to this problem.

    Go to the folder parent of the folder that contains the files with this unknown account number:
    1. right click on the PARENT folder, and then click Properties.
    2. on the Security tab, go to the advanced options (bottom window)
    3. in the new window, click the button change the permissions in the bottom.
    4. Select the Group (NOT AUTHENTICATED, just of users USERS) users
    5. check "replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable of this object.
    6. click on the OK button or apply and done, fixed number.

    Hope this helps anyone else having this problem, for me it happened after reinstallation of win 7 on the same machine and keep my images on another partition, so it was spared by the new facility, so the old user account was always on the file permissions.

      Go to the control panel. There are several ways to do this, but the most common is to go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Control Panel" on the right side. Follow whatever it is more convenient for you.

    2. 2

      Click on "user accounts" in the window that appears. Or, you see the standard view (with lines of icons) or the display of the categories (which is explicit). Both have a shortcut to the user accounts Control Panel.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    Delete the existing Partitions during the process.

  • Cannot delete the file. Says "not not found could not find this item check the location of this object and try again."

    Cannot delete the file.  Says "not not found could not find this item check the location of this object and try again."

    I got this file from my friend got sent - is a word document, I had on their computer.  So I tried to use Disk Cleanup to delete temporary files, temporary internet files and files program downloaded.  Does not work.

    When I check the properties, there is no security tab so I can't transfer ownership in this way.

    I don't want to experiment using the way of the transfer of ownership command prompt as the name of the file is several sentences long.  I can't rename it either, of course.

    Windows 7, a week and I already have a stupid problem which has already lost an hour of my time.

    What I did was to create a Notepad file that was empty and saved in the same location as the file that won't go away.  Once registered.  I click with the right button on the new file and rename the exact name as the file problem.  Don't forget to change the file extension (ex: .doc)

    ex file problem: word.doc

    new file: word.doc

    as long as they match eachother exactly you should see the file problem disappear and once that's gone, you can delete the new file created.
