    Failed to delete standard user account permanently


    I failed to permanently delete a standard user account more than 20 times. I even activated the built-in Administrator and then deleted the user account, the same account re-generated automatically after a 'sleep' or re-start.


    I used the command prompt (Admin) net user [ACCOUNT NAME] /delete to delete the unwanted account and all effort in vain -- is my IS hacked and tainted with irregularities.


    Even worse, a warning - without any name of application - ' Please upgrade your application' always prop up when Windows 10 starts.

    :)

    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.

    I do not want Microsfot user account. I want to delete permanently. Please help.

    Delete the older account using these steps:

    • Open Settings
    • Accounts
    • Family and other users
    • Other users
    • Under other users, click the older account and click the remove button.

    Facebook Allows Users to Delete Accounts

    Yes, for quite some time, once you had a Facebook account, it wasn't going anywhere. Now, fortunately for college students and people with no attention span everywhere, Facebook now allows said people to delete their Facebook accounts. This was in direct response to user complaints about not being able to delete their accounts, if desired. Even if users were able to delete their own accounts, there were no obvious directions on how to do that. Another reason that Facebook decided to allow users to delete their accounts was a reason that could have gotten Facebook sued if they did not address it: privacy. The "I didn't actually make a Facebook" E-mails were really racking up in Facebook's inbox, and Facebook sometimes made it all too easy for people to research intimate/private/personal details of users' lives. At this point, deleting your account is just a help-page away. Facebook admins are considering adding a "delete account" button.
