  2. deleted user account

    Hi,

    Thank you posting on Microsoft Community.

    I would suggest you to provide some information to help you better.

    • Are you willing to create the Family account again?
    • Are you trying to recover the files of the deleted account?
    If you are trying to recover the deleted account files. Microsoft doesn't have that option of recovering.

    Note: Once deleted, the user accounts cannot be recovered. Make sure you back up any data if required.

    Keep us posted to help you better.

    How to recover Deleted user and its files in WIndows 10 ?

    Recently I was trying to remove local account from my pc (Windows 10 Home)
    And I Google it out Microsoft official was showing steps to delete local user,
    But , I accidently deleted my main user account which I use With all the files in it and every thing in it
    And this whole process was done through CMD (mentioned below)

    Steps to Delete a User Account in Command Prompt
    Press Windows + X keys from the keyboard, select Command Prompt (Admin).
    Type net user and hit Enter to list the user accounts on your device.
    Type net user "User account " /delete and hit Enter to delete the user account.


    [/I]After doing When I Restarted my pc I was unable to login
    Some how I created new user and login to My pc
    But all my main data in user folder and all the setting, tweaks, ect.. are gone
    Is there any way to recover my deleted user account so that I can get all my data back.

    If Yes I acidentally deleted the wrong user account and i need to recover the files :) How ?
    If No, *Sad is there any other way to get my all setting and theme back
    * My Sync your setting was on previously

    Thanks in advance
