I want to do is delete the second so that I can use the address as primary on the first alias (as is my most used gmail account). Is this possible?

    Hi Dan,.

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    From the description, it seems that you want to remove one of the two Microsoft accounts.

    Once you remove the secondary account from Microsoft, you can use the primary address, but you can go as an alias. 

    To remove a Microsoft account, you can see the Microsoft article and check if that helps:

    Note: Before deleting an account Microsoft make a backup of data.

    You can also consult the Microsoft account and check if it helps:

    In the original version (traditional uninstall), you are given a screen that lets you choose what to uninstall, and then you clear again (if there). If you do not have this option, and then try to uninstall in Windows via Control Panel.

    I just tested and it gives you the screen.

  • How can I remove the user name and the image of Windows XP new Start Menu

    Two questions:

    1. How can I delete the user name and the image of Windows XP new start; and

    2. my computer keeps asking me to press the F1 key to start Windows.  How to skip this part?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The image of user account can be removed by disabling the Welcome screen. Or, by opting for the classic Windows theme. Follow the method described in this article, if you want to remove the user name and the picture in the Start Menu, without disabling the Welcome screen and Windows XP theme.

    For those who want to delete the user name and the image of user account from the Start Menu, in order to have a blue white Panel at the top, try this:

    Step 1:

    a. start Windows Explorer and go to this folder:
     
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft account images

    b. in this folder, rename the BMP file that corresponds to your user account.
     
    (For example, if your user name is Robert, rename Robert.bmp to old_Robert.bmp)

    c. then rename the following folder:

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft account Pictures\Default pictures
     
    to something else, for example,.
     
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft account Pictures\No_Default images.

    Step 2:
     
    To remove the user name, follow these steps

    a. Click Start, click "RUN" and type "regedit.exe" and navigate to this key:

    b. in the right pane, the value NoUserNameInStartMenu-value data 1.

    c. close Regedit.exe and restart Windows.

    You'll find yourself with a blue area at the top of the Start Menu.

    Regarding the pressing 'F1' to start Windows, you have made no changes or was there a system crash after which the problem started?

    You may need to change the boot sequence in the BIOS to the default settings. I recommend you contact your PC vendor for this.

    Warning of the BIOS:
    BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • How can I view the administrator account, which is not even in SafeMode (Windows 7)?

    I was instructed to set up a Windows 7 PC. It has been used before, but I don't know by whom or how it was used. In order to do a bit of setting up I want, I need access to the administrator account. I have an account that is in the group administrator, Admin, but the account itself seems to be hidden or missing. It does not appear when I boot in safe mode. How can I access the administrator?

    I found my own answer. The administrator account is disabled. Enable it, run the policy group, then Configuration Editor Local computer--> Windows settings security settings local policies--> security-> accounts options-->-->:--> Enable Administrator account status.

    After that, I was able to connect to the administrator.
  • How can I remove the Administrative Tools, network connections, printers & Fax and scanners and cameras my desktop icons?

    Recently, I installed a trial version of Tune Up Utilities 2009. During one of the scans/tune-ups, he gave me the option to display the Administrative Tools, network connections, printers & Fax and Scanners & cameras icons on my desktop. I checked ok, however, now, I think it's too crowded in my office and you want to remove them... right on the desktop, not everywhere else they are located. I tried everything I know to remove them without success. Anyone knows where is the menu option to display on the desktop so I can uncheck or choose Delete? I don't want to have to change all the .ini files or .bat to because I'm afraid I don't do it correctly and create other problems.

    Restart the computer using safe mode, and then log in as administrator. The password is by default set to an empty space. You can now recreate your admin account.

    When you have finished, try to plan ahead a little. Have a computer with a single administrator account, it's something that compulsive risk takers indulge in. The rest of us sure we at any time two fully tested and documented admin accounts.

  • How can I remove the links above and below my custom OAF iProc page?

    I created a custom for iPRocurement OPS page and it launches via extending the controller of a seeded page. Basically, I want to launch my page whenever a user accesses the seeded NonCatalog request page. Launch works very well; I see only my launch page each time a user navigates there. My problem is that when my custom OPS page launches, links at the top (Shopping Cart, Logout, preferences, help, Page customize, Diagnostics) and low (shop |) Applications of | Reception | Shopping cart | Home page | Logout | Preferences | Help | Customize the Page. Diagnosis) is still there and functional. I want to delete these links if a user can't interact with this page other than the options that I give them.

    Thank you!


    Here is how I start page custom OAF.

    StringBuffer l_buffer = new StringBuffer();
    StringBuffer l_buffer1 = new StringBuffer();
    l_buffer. Append ("javascript:mywin = openWindow (top, '" ");")
    l_buffer1. Append("/LANL/Oracle/Apps/ICX/por/req/WebUI/LANLProcNavNonCatPG");
    l_buffer1. Append ("& retainAM = Y");
    String url = "/ OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page="+l_buffer1.toString ();
    OAUrl popupUrl = new OAUrl (url, OAWebBeanConstants.ADD_BREAD_CRUMB_SAVE);
    String strUrl = popupUrl.createURL (pageContext);
    l_buffer. Append (strURL.ToString ());
    l_buffer. Append ("', 'lovWindow', {width: 750, height: 550}, false," dialog", null); ») ;
    pageContext.putJavaScriptFunction ("LANSL purchase Navigator", l_buffer.toString ());

    Hello

    It is an example of code to hide the House, disconnection of the links on the page. Place this code the PR of your custompage.

    OAPageLayoutBean page = pageContext.getPageLayoutBean ();
    page.prepareForRendering (pageContext);
    Buttons OAGlobalButtonBarBean = (OAGlobalButtonBarBean) page.getGlobalButtons ();
    buttons.setRendered (false);

  • I installed 5.6.2 Pages but all my old documents will open with ' 08 how can I delete the Pages ' 08 and update all the old documents

    I installed 5.6.2 Pages but all my old documents will open with ' 08 v.3.03 How can I remove the Pages ' 08 and update all the old documents

    5 pages is located in your Applications folder.

    Pages ' 08 is located in your Applications/iWork ' 08 folder.

    If you open your old documents Pages ' 08 with 5 Pages it will convert and if not damage, remove a large number of useful features.

    You will probably regret upgrading to 5 Pages which Apple has made extremely inconsistent and keeps changing its file format.
