    Account isn't showing up when using the net user command


    So I'm using the account I want to see info about with command prompt, and it has elevated privileges as well, but when I type in the account name, nothing shows up. So basically it's like this...


    C:\WINDOWS\John>net user John


    It says that this user name cannot be found. Any help is much appreciated, thank you!

    :)

    Remove account


    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
      Code:
      net user test /del

  3. Net User Commands are not working properly for me

    Hey, I have a network of computers and when I try to delete an account, it states that the command was executed successfully and the accounts do not show up with the command "net user /domain" in the list, as if they were deleted.

    But the problem comes in with me still being able to log in with the account that I "deleted", but it seems to be gone from the list anyway.

    Command I used to delete the account was: "net user (name) /delete /domain"

    Yes, the domain was correct for sure so I don't understand.

  4. Account isn't showing up when using the net user command

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.
