Windows 10: How to delete the "God" User. My computer has been compromised and this is what the jerk...

I have been dealing with this issue for wayntoo long. I am logged in as a Temp User and have tried all the mentioned tasks with no progress. I'm at My wits end here.

Dugly,

The account, that had the original username Administrator, cannot be deleted. It is a system item.

All you can do is disable it as you have been trying to do.

Because you renamed it [to God mode] I am not sure what the OS now refers to it as. Enter this command in a Command prompt window
Code:

and see if it is listed as Administrator or as God mode.

If it is referred to as Administrator still then I do not know why your command
Code:

went wrong, assuming that you entered the command in an Admin prompt. That command should disable it.
- It should then disappear from Settings, Accounts & Control panel, User accounts
- It will still be listed in Net user results because that lists every account [enabled & disabled].
What response do you get to the command?

By the way, the Administrator account is no more powerful than any Admin account you create yourself.
- It is not a "Super user" in any sense.
- In some ways, it is less powerful because Apps do not run in it.
- There are often claims that the Administrator account has greater powers than the Admin accounts you create yourself but they are incorrect.

I can't think of any message along those lines. Did you take a screenshot of it?

Exorcising God Mode

Are you saying you created an Admin account "named" God Mode, or that you created the God Mode folder?


This site describes the God Mode folder....

Hi,



We suggest that you log in to your admin account then delete the other user profile. To delete a user account on Windows 10, kindly follow these steps:

• Click Start > Settings > Account > Family & other users
• Click the account that you want to delete
• Click Remove. You’ll be prompted to confirm.
• Click Delete account and data.

Once the other account is deleted, you can try again running the netplwiz.
Just ensure that you uncheck the one labeled as “Users must enter a username and password to use this computer.”
