• How to remove a user account on my computer.

  I would like to delete a user account on MY computer and don't know how.  The account has a password and I don't want to have to ask the person for his or her password.  It is no longer resident at home.  I think that my computer's performance will increase considerably if I do this as there are things stored there who gets up on my computer and it is not used.  Appreciate your help.

  Hi momoftwo_,

  When you delete a user account, you can choose if you want to keep the files created under that account; However, the messages and settings on the computer for the account will be removed.

  (a) open user accounts by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking user accounts and family safety, clicking user accounts, and then clicking Manage another account. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  (b) click the account you want to delete and then click delete the account.

  (c) decide whether to keep or delete the files created under the account by clicking keep files or delete files.

  (d) click on remove account.

  If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

• How to remove the user account from the connection Start Page (therefore restart goes directly to the desktop without the need for any clickthru)?

  On my Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit system, all I had to do was to remove all the accounts (other than 'administrator') in addition to my login information main user account and remove the password of the Admin account and I use a main user account, and then whenever I reboot, reboot goes all the way to the Windows desktop (i.e. through it does not stop with a cover page showing the user account).

  -It does not seem that this approach works for my Vista SP2 Business Edition 32 bit.  In fact - I get TWO accounts of user with the exact name even appear (my account "DougL12"), as well as the "Administrator" account  None of these accounts have passwords (I can just click on one of them, which brings up a screen to enter a password, then click again without entering any PW, and then I get thru on my desk).

  When I go to 'User accounts' control Panal and select 'Manage another account', windows displays a screen showing three accounts:

  (1) "Guest" (power off);

  (2) "DougL12" (hey I am running, whose B-T-W has privileges admin; also do not have a password); and

  (3) 'administrator' (which, if I choose only, is not an option 'disable', although it has not one)

  (password).

  NOTE: page does not display "" versions of the user account "DougL12", although the login screen that is telling.

  so:

  (1) what do I do to eliminate the appearance of user accounts / Login Screen (i.e., default to my main user

  Account, "DougL12" and should not click)?

  (2) any thoughts as to why the system could be displaying two Occurrences of the user account Login "DougL12" on the

  login screen?

• How to remove a user account remotely in Windows 8 Pro?

  Hey people!

  I have a rather embarrassing question here, which is not urgent, but gives me great concern.
  I am an administrator as COMPUTER technician (sort of... without... self-taught qualifications only) to a small property management organization.
  I am currently looking for another job, and when you want to leave I might have is any more access to the desktop. I have always (it's the PC I am writing this post since).
  I am connected with my private microsoft account, even I use it everywhere, including my own laptop computers and the family too. Needless to say that there is information only I have access to, but I didn't want any hack - in a tent in the future. After all, this is my personal account.
  Is there a way to not just turn off sync and access to my account on this computer, but force the system to delete my files on this computer using my account from another computer? even if the files cannot be removed remotely (they are encrypted), if there is a way to prevent my account appears in the settings and the user selection screen would be a great help.
  Please note that, from now on, I need to have my account on this PC so that I can access information on the server of office on the fly if needed.
  Any ideas?
  Thanks in advance
  PS: Yes, I said I am a technician, but please note that it is not my job. I'm more in the development of a set of security features of Windows. Everything I know about computers come from self-education (experiences and failures in my childhood), and even though I consider myself a very thorough person, beyond the level of the user, I have to admit that I'm not an expert. especially when it comes to advanced safety features. but my mind is open to suggestions and ideas...

  There is no one way to do this unless you have the device software and server management suites.  So basically, not unless you are a massive company.  But even in this case, there is no absolute guarantee, because the company could just disconnect the network and then you'd never a way to send a command to this computer anyway to clear it.  So any local administrator on the computer can still watch all the files, regardless of what protection/security configure you (administrators are like God: they can always see everything without any restrictions at all).

• Delete how could put cached user account from the Nexus 9 K program?

  We had a problem that the GANYMEDE user could login to N9K via GANYMEDE ID only once, after that all connection attempts are failed.

  The log shows:

  Any user can only connect once, we confirmed the password are correct.

  But when "view us user accounts, we found the account have been cached which suppose to do this problem.

  user: 1473165
  roles: vdc-operator
  account created through the REMOTE authentication
  Credentials such as ssh server key will be cached only temporarily for this user account
  Local login is not possible

  Is there anyone know how to remove these cached user accounts?  And how do I configure self-suppression of users hide once disconnection?

  Most likely, you hit CSCux43153.

  Hello

  It is probably best to reset the laptop to his 'Condition of the factory' and then set yourself up as the new owner - see section "recovery when Windows 8 will not start properly" on the next Document in HP.

• You want to delete the user account from the computer and turn the computer on a workgrout or a homegroup.

  Original title: My Windows 7 laptop is plugged in and not on a network. My lack of understanding of the work and networking groups made me make a mess in the implementation

  I implemented 'users' as I could and now I find that in large part is loaded on my computer and I didn't need to have to deal with two identities to myself.  Can I fix or would it not be better to reinstall Windows a user, a set of files on all and the guest account will be switched off.  In addition, even though my computer says that it is a working group, the only internet connection I have is the LAN.  Can someone put me directly.

  Thanks in advance
