    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:

    Automatic logon does not work on my computer

    a) I am unable to remember one of the logons which I setup as an emergency logon (in case I forget the other logon).

    -> When logged on under an admin account, you can change the password for any other account. Press the Windows key and type users, then follow the prompts.

    b) I am unable to long [log on?] without keying in a password.

    You must follow this procedure while the user accounts panel (the one you posted) is active:

    • Tick the box that requires users to enter a password.
    • Click the account name under which you wish to log on automatically.
    • Untick the box from Step 1.
    • Click OK.
    • Enter the password for the chosen account.
