    Delete the original account created by the store to set the new computer


    Hi,

    Delete the original account created by the store to set the new computer.

    I need to delete the Microsoft account created by the store to set the new computer. How to do this?

    :)

    after creating new user account the app store doesn't work

    I have tried this several times with the same result:

    create a new user account with local log-in

    when returning to my own user account a number of my store apps will not run

    none of the suggested fixes help:

    • wsreset.exe fails [remote procedure failed]
    • entering several command lines at a system prompt fails [the entered location cannot be found]
    • deleting the newly created user account
    the only way I have found to fix this is to restore the computer to a previous time.

    please don't suggest I try a bunch of the usual procedures to fix the store

    this is something specifically to do with opening the new user account. is this an known issue?

    Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


    Hello,
    Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
    I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
    I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
    Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
    I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
    Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers
