    Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

    Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

    I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

    It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

    EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown Do user accounts remain after resetting my Windows 10 pc? :(

    Do user accounts remain after resetting my Windows 10 pc?

    resetting per user accounts (NOT resetting a PC)

    You cannot reset a single User Account in Windows 10



    What you can do is:

    • Create another User Account with admin privileges
    • Log out of the original account
    • Sign into the new admin account
    • Delete the original account
