    15 hours ago, i removed the admin account deleted and without noticing the details have also deleted the files linked to it. Afterwards i upgraded to windows 10 pro after entering product key. This morning wheni wanted to open my files they were all empty. I system restore it and got my admin account, but all the files are still empty. I have no backup prior to this Any ways to solve this?

    :)

    Deleting User Accounts

    If you can access the admin account through safe mode then all you have to do to remove the other account passwords is go into User Accounts in the control panel and either delete the accounts or, I'm not sure, remove the account passwords.

  3. How do I delete registry files?

    HKEY_Current user will only delete the keys within the current account ur using so if u have another account, the keys will remain on that one. To delete it from ur entire system local machine is what u use. Ur second question i can't answer. sry

    How do I delete my account?

    vBulletin needs some simple function, just like "register", called "deregister". What does it do? Turns off the account. Can no longer post. Other users see the person has left and don't expect answers. (Status: deregistered). All messaging is stopped. Email and password is deleted from database. However, POSTS remain, as does the username in the user database. The username cannot be reused.

    This can be functionally replicated with what w1z suggested earlier in the thread, ie. fill in the email with nonsense and manually delete anything you want removed. However, it is more elegant to have a deregister function, just as you have unsubscribe to mailing lists, just as you deregister with the various authorities when you move house etc. etc.

    However, users should bang on at the forum software developers to implement this, not the forum admins themselves, who bought the software with fixed functionality.

    In fact, there is an add-on for vbulletin End-User Options - Self Delete: Allow users to self-delete their account - vBulletin.org Forum
