Remove the Windows administrator account?

Hi friends,

I use Windows XP. After the operating system installed, I worked with the default administrator user.  I worked in SQL, Visual Source Safe, and the default navigation

Administrator account.  So my history and cookies are stored in this story... Then for the purposes of testing, I created an administrator account by myself with the name of "Admin". so after that, I could not delete the Admin account, I don't want this account because I don't want to lose any of my story.

I want to work with the default Administrator account and I would like to delete the Admin account I created.

Is this possible?. Please someone help remove my Admin account and continue with the default Administrator account...

Please I am really struck upward with this problem...

Hi Ravikaran,
 
-What exactly happens when you try to delete the administrator account? You receive an error message or error code? If Yes, indicate the same.

You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group to perform this procedure. If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from complete this procedure.

See the following articles for more information on the deletion of the account:

    Hello Wolfgang,.

    You are not supposed to remove the user from the administrator that was used to install the software. You can lock that counts if him want, however, you do not delete the account

  • How do I open a session with the local administrator account in Windows 8

    Hello

    About two weeks ago, I bought my laptop Dell Inspiron 15 inch 7000 Series that pre-installed with Win8 Japanese worm.

    Tried to download the Win8.1 from the store to Win, but asked me to identify a user with administrative privileges.

    When I booted up my laptop, it only prompted me to my Windows account (created this account I've first turning on my laptop).

    How can I change to log to the local administrator account when starting my laptop?

  • Program runs in the hidden administrator account, but not the administrator account

    I have been using Altium Designer for about 5 months. One day, I tried Eun and got the error "dxp.exe has stopped working.  So, after trying a re-boot.  I have reinstalled the software.  At the end of installation, I get the message "the system administrator has set policies that prevent this facility." The installation then said that the installation has been completed successfully. I tried: unlock all files in the installation directory, run the installation as an administrator, the installation running on the hidden administrator account. Turn off UAC.

    The installation leaves me with a program which runs in hidden administrator but not nromal administrator.  Even if the install ation was made as normal anministrator.

    I am running Windows 7 Home premium, so the control of local security is not available.

    Thank you for your help ITKnowledge24.  Your post helped me to find parts of the program that I would never know that existed.

    It turns out that my problem was in two parts.  First what killed the software is primarily a print unrelated dirver.  (go figure)  Installation errors were caused because I downloaded the version recient most of the manufacturer's Web site.  When I reinstalled using the old version, the installation was without error.  The software starts to run correctly when the printer driver has been removed.  It seems that windows security was only a Kipper.

  • the hidden administrator account is hidden by default, must it be left enabled and protected by password?

    original title: Hidden Administrator

    Hi, the hidden administrator account is hidden by default, must it be left enabled and protected by password? or must it be left empty without password as default. It is advisable to use this every day as the previous version of windows that you are running as an administrator, or another account should be created?

    These two methods are the same and have the same effect and the same security protection, but which is better?

    These two methods are the same and have the same effect and the same security protection, but which is better?

    If the built-in administrator should be enabled or disabled is really your choice.
    If you decide to keep activated:
    1. give it a password (make a written copy and not to lose).
    2. it MUST not be used on a daily basis.
    3. should your emergency backup Administrator account ONLY.
    4. you must create an account admin with you as an administrator.
    5. the choice is yours. Others will say that you must open a regular user account and use it for every day. If you agree, do.

  • Hello... can I remove the windows.old folder?

    IM installing my windows 8 from the installation of costum (im not not formatting my hard drives).
    some of the software I used was installed there. but since unneed software is much more software I've used, I want to
    to remove this file... it is therefore normal to remove this folder? If so, how?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    No need to worry, we're here to help you and guide you in the right direction.

    The windows.old folder is the old system files. Be sure to copy all the files that you can out of the Windows.old folder before you delete it. Once deleted, they are gone. You must be logged in as an administrator to be able to do the steps.

    The Windows.old folder contains the following folders:

    • Windows
    • "Documents and Settings".
    • "Program Files."

    The Windows folder stores mainly programs and files that are required to run the previous version of Windows.

    The "Documents and Settings" folder stores mainly the 'My Documents' folder and the Favorites folder. In addition, the "Documents and Settings" folder stores the office files that have been used by the previous version of Windows.

    The "Program Files" folder stores mainly programs have been installed on the earlier version of Windows.

    There are two ways to delete the windows.old folder. Here is the simple step.

    Method 1: Delete the C drive.

    (a) open Windows Explorer, click computer.

    (b) select C drive and you will find the Windows.old folder.

    (c) make a right click on the folder and click Remove.

     

    Method 2: Remove the "Windows.old" folder using disk cleanup

    (a) open Disk Cleanup by clicking on the button Windows + C to open the bar of charms. Click on the charm of the Search .

    (b) type cleanmgr in Search Applications box in the right pane, and then click cleanmgr.exe (disk cleanup) in the left pane to open it.

    (c) If you are prompted to choose a drive, click the drive that you have just installed Windows on and then click OK.

    (d) in the Disk Cleanup dialog box, on the Disk Cleanup tab, click clean up system files.

    (e) If you are again prompted to choose a drive, click the drive that you have just installed Windows on and then click OK.

    (f) select the Previous Windows installations check box and the other check boxes for files that you want to remove, and then click OK.

    (g) in the message that appears, click delete files.

    Let us know the status of the issue. If you need help, I'll be more than happy to help you.
