  How were you completely delete a / profile under vista user account?

  I have a virus on a different user profile, and I just want to remove this profile.

  (ON VISTA)

  Hello

  How to remove a Vista user account - even if you do this, you should check as well
  for malware.
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/93026-user-account-delete.html

  Even if you do not see the virus on your other profiles, it might be in areas that will subsequently
  cause problems in the other profiles. It would be preferable to eliminate malware from the machine
  that can be done without using the profile infected from an ADMIN account.

  If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
  scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
  resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
  the cause.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
  to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
  extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

  It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
  the regular windows when you can.

  TDSSKiller.exe. - Download the desktop - so go ahead and right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN
  It will display all the infections in the report after you run - if it will not run changed the name of
  TDSSKiller.exe to tdsskiller.com. If she finds something or not does not mean that you should not

• Problem with Windows Vista user account management

  When you go to user accounts in Control Panel, I automatically get up my account but when I click on 'manage other accounts' and continue, I get a screen saying click account you want to manage but no icons or accounts don't appear in the box below?

  If I click on 'create new account' it does not work either, I was able to create accounts by going to the parental controls and after the link, but I can't seem to delete user accounts. I am running Vista Home Premium.

  Any ideas appreciated?

  I recommend you to check your admin rights.
  Eventually you cannot delete user accounts and cannot change anything because of a bad rights.

• Why do some executable programs require Windows Vista user account control to start, while others do not?

  For example, Iobit Advanced System Care 6 requires user account control to start, while none of the programs Microsoft Office requires user account control to start, but they are all executables (*.exe).  Why?

  EXE files may have a small text file embedded in them that controls this behavior (and other). A file called programname.manifest in the same folder can do it too, but one stand-alone exe substitute manifests (vista and later).

  Here is one that requires the Admin run and also uses 6 worm of the common controls.

• Vista - user account question

  When I install programs under the user administrator account I can't access the programs of a Standard user account. If I install the program under the Standard user account, I can not see or have access to this account program.  Also how can I allow file and folder sharing between user accounts?

  Hello
   
  1. this happens with all programs?
   
  Some programs have the current installation option or all users during installation. If your program does not work, you can install it and place a shortcut to it in the location of the "All Users" Start Menu. In this way, all users will have a shortcut for what they can copy and place where they like.
   
  Step 1: To add the shortcut for the program to all users, try the following steps.
  1 copy the icon to launch the program and paste it to the location: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start start\program
  NOTE: ProgramData is a hidden folder.
  Check 'Show hidden files' for the steps in this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Show-hidden-files
  2. Once you are done with step 1, you will be able to display the icon of the program here: start-> all programs-> programs
   
  Step 2: Once you install a program in the standard user account. You see the program launch icon on the desktop?
  If Yes, then try these steps.
  1 right-click on the icon, click on properties.
  2. click on the Compatibility tab.
  3. under privilege level, place a check on "run this program as an administrator".
  4. apply changes and start the program.
   
  Step 3: If step 2 fails, then install the program as an administrator in the standard user account.
  1. right click on the Setup icon, click Run as administrator.
  2 follow the instructions in the wizard to install the program.

• New Windows Vista user account access

  I'm running a new Dell with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and have had no problems of access to our wireless internet access. I created a new user account (not asked) the other day, but for some weird reason, I can't access our wireless thanks to the new account.
  The computer recognizes the wireless signal, but there seems to be a connection problem. How can I get the internet to work on the new user account?
  And just in case where, I know absolutely nothing about computers. We are talking about computers for the tips zero here, please.

  Thanks for the quick response, the lot.

  I've followed all the steps and was still scratching my head, but an error message popped up while I was in the new account, saying: there was an adapter error. I have a D - Link USB wireless network card thingamijiggy, so I took and plugged into the computer.
  He then asked me to confirm my password to access the wireless - perfect internet connection account, no worries.

  Bravo again.

  How to use system restore to log on Windows 7 or Windows Vista when you lose access to an account.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/940765

• Need to change the name of the administrator under the folder of the user account

  I just got a new HP laptop with Windows Vista 64 SP1. My friend who got the laptop I use a nickname that I hate it when he set up the computer for which it was not supposed to do in the first place. I went to the section control panel user accounts control and changed the name of the administrator account. I have only the administrator account on my computer with the guest account. That part worked.

  My problem is that, under C:/Users / (username), it still shows that hated nickname. I want to change the name of this folder, but cannot understand how or if it's possible. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance

  As you have discovered, you cannot change a user account by simply changing the name. That will be a change cosmetic only and none of the files/folders real profile will be changed. Follow the instructions below to fix things to your liking and to implement correctly under Vista user accounts.

  1. create the new user account (named as desired) as a * standard * (not administrator) account and at least one additional account with administrative privileges. Call the extra account 'CompAdmin', 'Tech' or similar.

  2. Enter the new user account once if the profile files are created, and then disconnect and then connect to CompAdmin.

  3. go in Control Panel > system > advanced > user profile > settings

  4. you will see where you can copy user accounts. Copy the misnamed old account to the new name correctly there. Use her browse to select your new account (C:\Users\newaccount). If you don't want to copy all the settings, and then instead simply navigate using the old user, music Explorer Windows Documents, etc. and copy the data to the new user folders.

  5. connect to your new correctly named user account. When you are sure to have what you need, you can delete the misnamed control panel user account > accounts to users if you wish.

  General information about configuring users in Vista:

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. If your normal user account is an administrator, having created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).
