swphreak Posted March 17, 2003 Share Posted March 17, 2003 Does anybody think they can help me? I'm trying to delete my sister's User Account for Windows XP (Home Edition) since she's left and went to college. But every time, it freezes (the "Not Responding" error). I've tried to get "official" help from Microsoft, but you have to go through so much sh!t just to get to a freaking page to ask a freakin question so I screamed gave up. Anybody good with computers/Windows and could give me any tips? Is there another way to delete User Accounts. And yes, my user account has the administrator "powers." Thanks.

Praetorian Posted March 17, 2003 Share Posted March 17, 2003 Wow...that's a good one. use us format c: j/k I don't know. I'll try to look that one up. One good place to try (I'll probably post the question there) is Tom's Hardware Guide. They have really good forums. I get help there all the time. I'm RPMayhem on those forums. http://www.tomshardware.com It is also a really good site for hardware reviews and news! I read that site daily!

Boba Rhett Posted March 17, 2003 Share Posted March 17, 2003 Do you have your account set up as the Administrative one? Have you tried deleting the account in Safe Mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthMuffin Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 I'm not sure if you actually CAN delete a user account... I've tried a hundred times and did not succeed. Don't you have recovery CDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted March 18, 2003 Author Share Posted March 18, 2003 yes, but I'm not running recovering on my computer. 1 time was enough and it was a pain in the butt. And there is an option to delete User Accounts in the "Users" section of Control Panel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
