    C windows installer folder - Delete?

    He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink How to delete extra windows installes ;)
    Better try it out in a virtual of first. Just a suggestion.

    Like:
    First move everything in c:\windows\installer to d:\installercache
    Then delete c:\windows\installer folder
    Then type this in command mode as admin
    mklink /d c:\windows\installer d:\installercache

    Removing those installer files is a bad idea. it might prevent you from updating or uninstalling apps.

    Extra Login on Windows 10

    Hi Nick,

    • Have you done any recent update or upgrade before the issue started to happen? Just Windows updates.

    • Are you the only one using your computer? Yes.

    • Do you remember changing any settings prior to this issue? No.

    • Have you installed any applications or program before this happened? No.

    • Do you recognize the other account as one of your household member? Yes, it is mine.

    • What steps have you taken to login to your computer? Login as the other login showing.

    As an FYI: I went to Systems > Accounts > Family & Other People and found an extra login there, under my name. I have deleted it yet as I wasn't sure if it was safe to delete because it says Administrator.
