have 2 admin accounts and it is impossible to get the option to remove one of them
I created for the administrator accounts and cannot get the option to remove one of them. I want to delete that won't give me the option to delete all it will let me do is change the password, it says it will allow me to change the picture, but when I try blank on the login screen is displayed. I can't change it even for standard user if I am logged in under the account of other admin. what I want to do is get rid of all my accounts and re-created them correctly like the one that I can't delete will sometimes pop up for password when I want to install something when I am connected with the other account.
Is it possible to reset all our and start from scratch? I think it happened when I made some changed account policy local when I couldn't get a regular with my admin account setup program and now I don't know how to cancel it.
I do not have to reinstall windows just to get this problem resolved... There must be an easier way.
Thanks in advance
Brenda
For the guest account - I have a little poorly stated. You * can * remove, but it is not recommended to perform this (possible to unintended consequences.) http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-desktop/deleting-guest-account/5a116d33-0056-47CA-B51A-b6615b90e160
Administrator account - as far as I know you just cannot delete the built-in one. Whichever one you can NOT remove - who is integrated. * smile *.
Rename you accounts? If not - it is one called "administrator." Alternatively, you can use a registry setting to understand - but really the name should give it (if you have not renamed - and even if he did you rename... You renamed, you must know what you renamed to) the description of the account should be, "the computer or to the domain administrative account '...
At the end of the day - you must remove only the accounts you know * you * created. Ignore the rest. Windows is/has been / will probably always be a multi-user even system when it is used by a single user. He has accounts that are doing things in the background at almost any time. Better than to let them be - unless you like instability.
Whenever you install something (attempt to) as a normal user, it should appear and ask you an administrative level account - but you can select 'other' and put in ANY account of administrative level on this machine, you know the credentials. ;-)

How to remove an additional admin account and keep the one I want
Recently bought a new iMac, I used the wizard to merge. She added a new my old mac admin account. Now I have two admin accounts.
I want to use the old Mac that has been transferred through and get rid of the other.
I'm going to SysPrefs/users / groups, unlock, but the-(minus) is grey and the other admin is grey too.
What to do what to do.
You can't delete an account once logged in it. You must log on to the account that you want to keep. Then go to users and groups, open the pane, select the account to be deleted and click the sign less.

on windows 7 starter edition how can I open an admin account, I have a standart account and I couldn't open any software on computer please help me.even change user account cannot be opened.
Hi kuentin,.
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!
(1) - what do you mean you have only 1 user account?
When you set up Windows, you will need to create a user account. This account is an administrator account to allow you to set up your computer and install any programs that you want to use. And that's why the user account you are using is the administrator account.
There is no way that you can create an administrator account, or by using a Standard account.
(2) are you having issues during installation of the software or opening it?
(3) what exactly happens when you try to open the software application?
(4) should be codes error or error messages, if any?
(5) what software are you trying to install or open?
I suggest you go to the link below and read for more information on user accounts.

original title: administrator, f8 safe mode access
My computer problem begins with not being about to uninstall a program. I need administrator permissions. I am the administrator with a password. I'm not invited to give a. Nothng happens when I press a button with a shield on it. I received another message that tells me "unable to open the access control editor: the system cannot find the specified file. I found the instructions online to restart the computer (by pressing the F8 key) in safe mode. Once in safe mode I can essentially take possession of the C drive and reset admin ACCT. in SUMMARY, I can't have with using F8 safe mode (I tried once bagillion) so I can not get access to my admin account and therefore cannot uninstall my program. Can anyone help?
I don't know anything about "reset admin account" but here are two things that may help the case to start in safe mode. First, enter the mode safe mode with f8 key is a matter of time. On my computer (Dell) during the boot process, I'm going to get a screen send me options of start of f2 and f12, which is to enter the BIOS. I can start hitting key f8 then but you will in safe mode unless I'm hit immediately after that the screen with f2 & f12 choices goes. I just hit several times for a few moments at this time.
If this does not work for you, here's another possibility: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/force-windows-to-boot-into-safe-mode-without-using-the-f8-key/

You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. The ADMIN account in trunk

My wife and I bought hundreds of iTunes movies and music over the years. I have a terminal illness and won't last long. The account is in my name. How can I ensure that films and the songs that she and I have paid for are accessible for her after I die?
She needs to have your Apple ID and password. Your iCloud ID and the password if you have your own iOS device, so it can have access to these facilities. Even if she wanted to sell, it would need this information to remove the lock of activation before the sale.

I have an unknown account and an unknown contact. How can I go to find out who they belong to?
Original title: unknown account
You can use the ProfileList registry to identify the SIDS of the users.
To access the registry, go to a command to run.
Press the Windows and R. Then type: regedit.1. go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
2. under the ProfileList key, you will see the SID. By selecting each individually, you can look at the entry and see what user name is associated with this particular SID. It will be in the right pane.
Note: The SID to a combination of profiles is reserved for the profiles on the local computer based. If a user is referring to a 'server' extension .usr or .man profile in the User Manager for domains that they will not be in this area of the registry to associate the username in SID.
If the account is not used, you can delete the registry. Don't forget to back up the registry before making any changes, as they will be permanent.
Let us know if that helps.
