How can I get additional user accounts get rid as I am the only person who uses my computer?

I'm the only user on my computer, so I am also administrator.  I don't want to deal with all the extra files created between User1 and administrator.  How to become just the Administrator without additional user?

Don't use NO Windows 7 with a single account. In Windows 7, the built-in Administrator account is disabled by default, and although it is possible to allow, this process may be beyond what you feel comfortable with.
WHEN, and not IF you have problems to access your user account, you will have considerable problems if you don't have a SINGLE account to use.
 
You need to forget about something to do with XP and create a user with administrator privileges, account (let's call him Admin or similar) and give it a password. Keep this account for access to emergency and for elevation purposes. Then change your account to a Standard user account. (There is absolutely no need to run as administrator on a daily basis in Windows 7, Windows 7 has the function of 'right-click-Run as Administrator "when you need administrator privileges). You'll be much safer and better protected than that.

  • There are 9 users on my drive C but Iam the "only person" who use my pc - it's strange?

    My OS is Windows 7 SP1 - a Gateway desktop computer I bought for me in 2009 - while I was trying to get administrative privileges to my pc as 'run as' is not acceptable for a Fix It solution. I stumbled on what might or might not be a problem, and of course, I would appreciate your opinion on the fact that I have (the only person who ever uses this pc) 9 users on my C drive. To simplify my concern here is what I want to know: can I remove one of these if they do not have a purpose?

  • I have a dual monitor in the display with a different total 3 registered. How can I get rid of one of the duplicates.

    I accidentally added the same monitor in the display area where you can change the appearance.  I think this causes a problem when I click for a drop-down list, as the drop-down list will be grayed out until I put the mouse pointer in the drop-down list box list, so I'm able to use the right items listed lower down.  However, after I have click on the option I want to use, copy, paste, cut, etc, that particular item will remain on the screen until I have change the resolution and then go back to the original resolution.  I'm afraid to remove the monitor that I would delete that I'm not with my main monitor.

    Thank you for your time,
    Frank

  • When trying to update, I get a message that says I don't have the required system permissions & contact system administrator. It's my computer and I'm the only person who uses it. Help, please. I use mac osx 10.4.11 thanks for answer, michael

    Hi, I have all the software installed on this computer and have even updated before firefox. now, by clicking on the tab "check for updates" I get the above message. Since it is my computer I guess I am the administrator and I had no difficulties to install the software before. What could happen? appreciate any help on this. Thanks, michael

    If he has problems with the update or the permissions then simpler is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a clean install of the new version.

    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)

    • Trash the present application Firefox to do a clean (re-) install
    • Install the new version you downloaded

    Your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re) install Firefox.

    Hello

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    Yes, the feature is available. But before you activate, make sure that you only use that uses the PC, as is the administrator account, if everyone turns on the PC, they will have access.
    So, go to the bars of charms, click settings, click Change PC settings. Go to the user. There, you can find this text under options of Sign-in, any user with a password must enter when waking up this PC. Click change the text below. You will be prompted with a warning as shown above. Click Ok. Now the text will go to any user with a password has not needed to go when to wake up this PC. Now, when you start the PC, won't be asked to log on credentials.
    Response if the issue is not resolved.
