I can't remove Windows 7 user - access denied

Hello

I can't remove a user of Windows 7 that I created. I don't know the user in Control Panel.

When I created the user I tried to make my computer as a VPN server.

I did these steps:

(Here is the original tutorial: http://www.howtogeek.com/135996/how-to-create-a-vpn-server-on-your-windows-computer-without-installing-any-software/)

1: open the startmenu and open "ncpa.cpl" (this will open network connections)

2: click on the spare key to be able to click on 'File' in the menu

3 'new incoming Connection"(and I got a list of users)

4: I created a new user in this window, called "jonathanvpn".

next steps is not important, the user is created. and I can't delete the user "jonathanvpn".

I don't find in the control panel. just my account and an inactive STRP. (I am the computer administrator)

I also tried in the CMD (command Promt) to type net "user jonathanvpn" and I can't find the user. I saw information about the user.

Now, I tried to type net "user jonathanvpn/del" in trying to remove the user, but it says "access denied."

How can I remove this user?

    No, he's not slow down your computer. Maybe he's still there, but it
    is not running. AVG, it turns off because it is duplicate that AVG made.

    and personally I don't like Vista... and just discovered another reason why? So, since I'm NOT under the "Vista" operating system anymore and am running Windows 7, I would like to program Windows Defender removed.

    With two versions of Windows, AVG will shut down Defender and the only
    advantage of the deletion, it would be to save a small Mount of disk space.
    And as a part of Windows, you cannot delete it.

  • How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal.

    How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal. I am a novice. Thank you very much.

    1. Please select from the menu bar Terminal

    ▹ terminal preferences... ▹ Profiles ▹ Shell

    If the run command box is checked, uncheck it or enter the command to run automatically (if any), each opening of a Terminal window. Note: this is not how you define a default shell.

    2. If step 1 does not resolve the problem, see below.

    Back up all data.

    Select

    New Shell command ▹

    in the Terminal menu bar. Uncheck the box marked

    Run the command inside a shell

    If it is enabled.

    Copy and paste the following line into the text box that appears, and then press return:

    /bin/mkdir disabled_shell_files

    Close the Terminal window that opens. Repeat with this line:

    /bin/mv .profile .bash_history .bash_profile .bashrc .inputrc disabled_shell_files

    History Shell and former initialization files will be saved in a directory named "disabled_shell_files" at the top level of your home directory. It is normal that some of these files do not exist, and therefore, you will get error "no file".

    Close the window and open a new test.

    You may already know that files with name starting in '. ' are not visible in the Finder by default. So, if you open the folder that you created in the Finder, it will appear as empty, even if it is not. If you need to recover a portion of the data in the files of the shell, use a shell such as nano-based text editor (1). Make sure that you're not recreating the problem. Otherwise, you can delete the folder.

  • I can not save pictures it says access denied

    I can not save pictures it says access denied

    In which folder you are trying to save the images (full path name please)?  It is C:\Users\\Pictures (which shouldn't give you a permissions problem, but it is possible) or is this another place?  Also, when you try to save pictures of (full name of path please)?  It's probably just a permissions problem.  You must grant you full rights and eventually take charge of this issue (or perhaps its parent or both folders if the permissions are inherited).  You may also use the advanced feature to adjust the special permissions that can be liimiting described on the homepage (it depends on the folder and what permissions are).  Here are some general guidelines for changing the permissions and/or ownership.

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  • How can I remove the 'remember' user names and passwords to sell a computer?

    I'm selling the computer and want to 'clean up', the removal of personal accounts, the user id and passwords that are "saved" on the system.  How can I remove them?

    The best thing to do would be to completely erase the hard drive by using a "safe remove" utility like Darik Boot and Nuke.  If you wanted to be generous, you can then re-install Windows XP and include the installation CD with the computer.

    Most paranoid individuals pleading to remove the hard drive completely, the computer without a hard drive, selling and maintaining or physically destroy the disk hard as you wish.

    If you do not have Windows XP's installation CD, and you insist on the sale of the computer with an operating system, the best thing would be to use the system of the manufacturer of the computer to restore the computer to its "fresh coming from the factory" State.  Usually, this is done by using a hidden partition on the hard drive.

    There are 'file shredder' applications available (you can search for them), but the problem with the deletion of files and folders individual - even if the removal is made with a tool that prevents the recovery data reasonably - is that you never know if you managed to root out all your personal information.  In particular, you probably will not be able to assume that the registry of Windows was completely "sanitized."

    Hello again,

    Another reason for not getting answers in due time, it's that you post in the wrong forum in "answers". This should really be posted in this forum...

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/Forum/Messenger

    .. because Windows live call is part of messenger. By posting your question in the wrong forum you not reach the largest selection of possible contributors, perhaps even eliminate everyone with the appropriate knowledge.

    You have already been informed of the connection of Windows live call with messenger by Srinivas KR in your original question.

    In short, most of the lack of response, you have found is down to your own lack of knowledge about the best way to get results. If you want to use a new tool, it is always a good idea to do some research before you use it so that you can get the best out of it. "Answers" are your information tool and will make you much better work for you if you are reading this...

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/page/FAQ

    .. .in conjunction with the link I gave in another of your questions.

    That said...

    It doesn't seem like Messenger have the ability to disable this option. Editing the registry appears as a possible solution. Editing the registry when done incorrectly can have serious detrimental effects on your system. Do so at your own risk. I can say that I followed the instructions here...

    http://www.mydigitallife.info/how-to-remove-Windows-Live-call-entry-from-new-ShellNew-menu/

    .. .and they worked on my PC.

    Of course, if you do not use Messenger, you could just uninstall as advised previously by Srinivas KR.
