    Can't delete profile on Windows 10


    There is a second user on my computer that I do not wish to be there. I've checked in Settings>Accounts>Other Users but the only user that shows up is my main administrator profile. I even used Command Prompt to check how many users there were but I couldn't find it. The user still shows up and can be logged into from the Lock Screen menu. What do I do/how do I delete it?Thanks in advance for any replies.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
