Remove the "Guest" user integrated security group "domain guests.

We are running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.  I accidentally added the "Guest" user built into the 'Domain' security group invited and what you should now remove it to return the settings to how they were before.  However, everytime I try, I get the message...

'The primary group cannot be removed.  Define another main group if you want to remove this one.'

I had put the integrated group of "Guests" (including users 'Guests' integrated is a also a member of) to the primary group, however, the ability to set a primary group is grayed out.

I hope someone has an idea?

Thank you very much!

    You can write a rule to achieve this where in the xStorageRule is evaluated based on any set of metadata such as dDocAuthor or dDocSecurityGroup etc., or a combination of metadata.

  • 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.

  • How to remove the guest on Macbook Air user account

    My 13 year daughter, uses the internet recklessly and I need to close the guest account, because my parental control does not seem to work. Even though I've taken away the guest user option in system preferences, it restarts the computer so that she can use safari. Can anyone help?

    Just how did you "took the guest user option in system preferences '?

    Did you go to system preferences > users and groups and click on the padlock at the bottom left and enter the admin password to allow edits then click the guest account and uncheck the checkbox allow clients to connect to this computer?

    Parental control is not / cannot apply to the guest account.

    You must have a separate account and then check the box for this account that says: turn on parental control.

  • delete, disable, remove the guest user account

    Hello

    I came across a lot of similar questions asked about deletion/deletion/disabling guest user account. the posted questions earlier and google has not provided me with answers specific questions.

    first of all, I know now that the guest user account is a system file that should not be deleted.
    1. Why is this?

    I enabled/activated the account invited for a day and people with mobility reduced/turned off later. I asked before and got a response that I should not have allowed the first guest account.
    2. Why is it?
    3. What's the harm in having activated once the guest account?

    the record of the guest user now appears in the c:\users\ location. It was not before but the fact now since that once I enabled guest account.
    4. do one thing 'ok' or is it a bad thing?
    5. What are the policies on the restoration of windows and system folders without having to reinstall the windows operating system?

    and finally
    6. in case the guest user account has been disabled/disabled, windows remove settings for it and wipe this account?

    Thanks in advance, forward your answers.

    Hello

    A guest account allows people to have temporary access to your computer. People using the guest account cannot install software or hardware, change settings, or create a password.

    Once the guest account is enabled, you will see the comments folder in the users folder and you will not be able to remove it. And when also disable you the folder of comments will be present, but it will not be enough space.

    If the comments have saved any file on your computer, it will be present in the folder of comments, it won't cause damage to your other user accounts.

    For more information, see the following Microsoft article and check if that helps.

  • Remove the guest user account

    Hello - I made an account of new additional guest a few weeks ago, and now I want to remove the account exactly the same, which has the name mikromalerier.

    My 2007 Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 is in my Danish mother tongue.

    I can see how to edit, block and 'Break' this account, but I don't see how and where to remove it. (By 'Break', I do not mean deleted but also not usable - in Danish "Als fra")

    What should I do?

    Thanks in advance - by

    You are welcome. I'm glad that everything is clear to you.

    > Why I can't delete this account is because it is by default?

    Yes. You can " turn off " the guest account, but you can not ' clear ' it.

  • Cannot remove the old user account (admin)

    I'm on a MacBook Pro 15 "the retina with OS X Yosemite 10.10.5.

    I have two admin accounts, an 'old' I do not use and a more current that I use.

    I want to delete the 'old' admin account, but I get an error message: "cannot delete user... account error backup in the home folder for this user."

    Here are the steps I followed:

    1. System Preferences-> users and groups

    2. click on unlock icon; authentication with username and password

    3. click on the 'old' user account and click on the button "-" to remove it.

    4. Select the option "save the home folder in a disk image", then click on remove the user

    5. for the moment, he says 'delete account '.

    6 then I get the error message.

    I know that I could choose the second option (in step 4), but I really want to move the old files of the user users users/Deleted.

    Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated

    The first thing that comes to mind is the following: is there enough room for the disc to be created image and put in files? The files are not moved from the reader to the disk image, they are copied. Then for a time in the account to be deleted files will be on the computer two times. The second thing that comes to mind is that there is a directory of the hard drive problem. If you do not have enough space and is my first problem, start the recovery partition and use the directory of disk to repair the drive. And the third thing that might be the cause of the problem is a bad file that cannot be copied to the disk image. It will be difficult to understand because basically, you will need to open each file to find the one that is perhaps incorrect.

  • Cannot remove the composer user

    Hi all

    We tried to remove the user of composer, but the following error: There is no pool associated with this user.


    If anyone has seen this before? Unfortunately, I don't see any KB with this error.


    Kind regards


    James.

    We had the same problem in different environments...

    in one of them, we changed the user rather than delete it and enter a new...

    in the second environment we have found a way to remove it from the database, but I guess it's not the most recommended...

    If you want, I can try to find the object that we withdraw...

    in any case, we had the same bug...
