• Cannot remove the old user account (admin)

  I'm on a MacBook Pro 15 "the retina with OS X Yosemite 10.10.5.

  I have two admin accounts, an 'old' I do not use and a more current that I use.

  I want to delete the 'old' admin account, but I get an error message: "cannot delete user... account error backup in the home folder for this user."

  Here are the steps I followed:

  1. System Preferences-> users and groups

  2. click on unlock icon; authentication with username and password

  3. click on the 'old' user account and click on the button "-" to remove it.

  4. Select the option "save the home folder in a disk image", then click on remove the user

  5. for the moment, he says 'delete account '.

  6 then I get the error message.

  I know that I could choose the second option (in step 4), but I really want to move the old files of the user users users/Deleted.

  Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated

  

  The first thing that comes to mind is the following: is there enough room for the disc to be created image and put in files? The files are not moved from the reader to the disk image, they are copied. Then for a time in the account to be deleted files will be on the computer two times. The second thing that comes to mind is that there is a directory of the hard drive problem. If you do not have enough space and is my first problem, start the recovery partition and use the directory of disk to repair the drive. And the third thing that might be the cause of the problem is a bad file that cannot be copied to the disk image. It will be difficult to understand because basically, you will need to open each file to find the one that is perhaps incorrect.

• Pavilion Slimline 400-314: cannot delete the renamed user profile

  Greetings!

  I've been enjoying the nuances of Windows 8.1... right.  In any case, I have Win8.1 64-bit on this excellent HP SLimline PC.  Now, I need help with the operating system.  I am an avid user of Windows 7 and like it a lot. My four PC's the only one with 8.1 and I have some learning curve experiments, of which this is one.

  So, I got this computer since July 2014 and did not otherwise than with the administration of the accounts.  The problem is that the account administrative principal (Yes, I use two accounts, one for the daily work and an administrator account to manage the computer - life is safer like that).

  The username admin account had to be changed, so I did.  You would think that changing the name of the account automatically would do this in all areas of the system filiing.  In this case, not so much.  WIN8.1 has created a new profile.

  I'm not saying that the name of the profile has not changed for purposes of connection, he fact and that seems fine.  However, looking at the users listed in the Explorer file and also on the network, the old user profile still exists with all rights and privileges of the Administrator profile normal.

  I think that's not good for two reasons; It is confusing on the network. It also creates a set of accessible files because there is no way to connect to clean.  And it may pose a security problem.

  Also, note that has not degraded the function of the computer, but it appears sometimes in unpredictable circumstances.

  What have I done to alleviate this problem?   Initially took a chance on system restore. I do not have a restore point will go back far in time to correct it.  Then I tried the old "select and delete" some content. Not a good idea and the system let me not in all cases.  I don't know that it needs to be done by the operating system.  I'm not sure I want to change the registry immediately, but maybe it's my only choice.

  So, I'm at a stand still for the resolution. Not wanting to rebuild the computer, I need a way to rub user profiles and delete the one which is supposed to be deleted.

  As always, thanks to all those who can suggest a positive way to correct this problem. It's probably very easy... maybe

  Banhien... Thanks for all your help in this matter.  Between your good suggestions and a little thought on my part, I was able to remove the 'extra' account on the computer.  To change the standard account using your idea was the key, except in this case, it was a little more complex.

  Note that there are only meant to be two accounts on this computer.  Here's what I had to do:

  1 log on as an administrator.

  2. change the administrator account.

  3 Rename the account administrator to the name that it was before I renamed it and capture a standard user.

  4 restart the computer (even if it is perhaps not necessary, just a good idea so that everything lines up again)

  5. open a session under the 'new' admin account (that I changed standard user)

  6. remove the standard account renamed and all of its associated files.

  7. create a new Admin account as the administrator

  8 change the original standard user, turned administrator, standard user feedback.

  Now, I'm back for two accounts;  an administrator account and a Standard user account.

  Restarted the computer.

  Set up the 'new' account of the administrator

  Thanks again for your help. Have a great day.

• Cannot delete the old folder separate disk windows

  I had a system OS 3 for a while, Vista, Win7 RC and Win7 Pro.

  Win7 RC is pleased and I want to delete records from his drive to free up space.

  I took possession of the folder (including subfolders) windows and my account is an administrator with full control account, BUT when I try to delete the old directory of windows first it says I need give permission, I click on continue, she goes through the files, and then a box indicates that I need permission from account owner Joan to continue.

  I'm logged into this account. This account is me, but when I click on continue, it says access denied.

  It's the same with the old directory program files.

  I can't delete, or the old directory of users.

  None of them is used. All are owned by mey account (there are only two accounts put in place on my PC and mine's administrator.)

  I am running windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed on my E drive.

  The files that I want to delete are on the c drive.

  How this computer to recognize that my admin account has full right, remove the obsolete operating system?

  Thank you

  Can archaeologist, you access the OS Win 7 RC?

  If so, use it "Folder Options" in the control panel.

  To all the "hidden files" readable.

  You say that you are the administrator, you should be able to do.

  You also try to remove Vista, as well?

  Do the same with this.

  Why you be "denied access" is... because these system files 'hidden '.

  Once this has been done, you can now in Win 7 (the one you want to keep!).

  In administrative tools, select 'Create and format hard disk partitions.

  Right click on the BLUE bar, drive hard 'in question.

  This will give you... .with a drop-down window, containing...

  Mark the Partition as "Active".

  After my new account Microsoft a link to my original Skype account, I'm still able to sign into account newly merged with the old Skype account username and password. Of course, I am also able to connect to the account merged with the Microsoft Mail and as well password account.

  My question is this, is this a planned security measure? As far as I know, support faq suggested using the Microsoft account to connect to the newly merged account. The support page is in the link given.

  I thought that once the merger of Skype accounts both Microsoft, the only method to sign the merged account is using the Microsoft account only. Please enlighten me on this matter. Thank you.

  This works as expected. When you link a Microsoft account with Skype account name, you should be able to connect to Skype, either by using Skype or Microsoft account name. Two connection options will lead to the same account.

  2. Click on manage another account. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  3. Click on create a new account.

  4. Type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.

  To copy files to the new user profile

  After creating the profile, you can copy the files from the existing profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

  1. Log on as a user other than the new user that you created or the user that you want to copy the files.

  2. Open Documents by clicking on the button start , and then clicking Documents.

  3. Click on the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.

     If you don't see the Tools menu, press ALT.

  4. Click the view tab, click hidden files and folders, clear the Hide protected operating system files check box, and then click OK.

  5. Find the C:\Users\Old_Username folder, where C is the drive that Windows is installed, and where ancien_nom_utilisateur represents the name of the profile you want to copy the files to.

  6. Select all the files and folders in this folder, except the following files:

     • Ntuser.dat

     • Ntuser.dat.log

     • Ntuser.ini

  7. Click the Edit menu and then click on copy.

     If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

  8. Look for the C:\Users\New_Username folder, where C represents the drive Windows is installed, and New_Username is the name of the new user profile you created.

  9. Click the Edit menu and then click on paste.

     If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

  10. Sign out and then sign back in as a new user.

      If you have messages in e-mail, such as Windows Mail, you must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile. If everything is working properly, you can delete the old profile.

• El Capitan: Cannot open the application "app name" because it may be damaged or incomplete

  Came across this several times. After you initially upgrade to El Capitan 10.11.2, after logging into my main account (admin), I was not able to open applications and received the following error:

  "Cannot open the application name"app"because it may be damaged or incomplete."

  I couldn't open "Activity Monitor", "System Preferences", "Finder" or anything (provided, App Store or other system). The icons will revert to the default application icon. Other users have no problem with the same apps.

  After the panic, I found a solution: go to another admin account, delete the old user account, and then add it again. This version corrects the problem of this user; It apparently rebuilt the user for that user identity information, while leaving their home folder (and preferences, documents, key rings, etc.) only. iCloud information must be re-entered, but it is trivial. Once the user delete and add, I was able to run these applications.

  When I upgraded to 10.11.3, it is the same thing, but to 3 accounts. I managed to solve this problem through the guest account - that is, I was still able to authenticate as an administrator, but I could not open a session and run anything.

  El Capitan removed permissions repair; I think it can be done in the recovery console, but I shouldn't do that.

  No idea why this continues to be?

  Generally to searching for the above error message is specific to applications from the App Store or other, not about things like "Activity Monitor" and "System Preferences."

  You now have this problem?

• The user profile Service service has no logon. User profile cannot be loaded. Then I deleted my user profile in safe mode, and when I connected, all the files in C:\users\(old users name) are all gone

  I use Vista Home Premium

  1. Windows automatically updated and turn off the power.
  2. I couldn't connect, it says that the service user profile service does not logon. User profile cannot be loaded.
  3. Then I deleted my user profile in SafeMode by doing: 'make right click on computer - properties - settings - advanced - user - deleted my old account profile settings '. There is no option for me to "keep my files."
  4. Then I managed to connect, I guess having creates a default user account? Because there is a new folder in C:\Users\, called (former name). (old name) - PC. In C:\Users\(old name), it is empty.

  Now, all my original files are gone because I deleted my old user profile. The size of my c: drive-has not changed much, so I guess all my files are still in only my computer, it's just that I can't find their "PATH". How could I get re-navigate to all my files? I need them so badly.
