Hello cxarolyn,

Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers Forum.  To delete the user accounts, you must be logged in with a user account that is also a Director.  Here are the steps to delete a user account:

1. Click Start, then right click on computer, then click Properties

2. click on advanced system settings (if you are prompted for a password or click on continue, then do)

3. under user profiles, click settings

4. highlight the user profile that you want to remove and click on remove

Note: You will not be able to delete the profile for the user account to which you are connected to, because these files are in use.

I hope this information is useful.

Thank you

Jack

    You have posted in a forum for Windows 7. If you want to run Outlook Express on Windows 7, be aware that it is not possible.

    But there are many other available e-mail programs that you can run on Windows 7. No need to remove the old accounts Windows XP Outlook Express. Simply install any program you want and set up for your e-mail account.

    Among e-mail programs are for sale and some are free. You can download the free Windows Live Mail to Microsoft, but I think it's a bad choice and I do not recommend it. But if you want a free software, feel free to download. install, try several and then continue to one you prefer.

  • After you back up your files, can remove you them from your computer to offer a space?

    I backed up all my files on my laptop, can I now remove them from my laptop to keep it moving faster? Is this a good idea? Or do I leave?

    You can do it, but I don't think that there will be a lot of gain in terms of performance.

    Always keep your files in separate so physical locations if you have all of your files on a laptop and all save them on a different laptop which is the better situation than she.

    Ideally, 2 laptops should also be in 2 physical places distinct and different.

  • How to remove the data from the computer?

    Original title: support the deletion of data

    Hello

    I'm selling my PC and want to make sure that my deleted data are not available to the new owner.
    There are a few threads on the permanent deletion of data, but believe it or not, they are a little too technical for me!
    What I have done so far is to reinstall windows vista which, I believe, formats the hard drive and then I deleted the windows.old file using disk cleanup function.
    All data sensitive etc. will be still recoverable? My apologies if this repeats another thread and I would be very grateful if someone could help it.
    Thank you very much

    Thanks for the tips. I'll do the following:

    1. create a CD or disk bootableDBAN
    2 wipe the disc C
    3 reinstall windows vista

    And this should provide sufficient protection to the new owner, trying to find the old files. If you think that I have to consider anything else please let me know if possible.

    Thank you very much
