  1. My account disappeared


    hello everyone , i was trying to log in with my microsoft account but it just kept saying that the account doesn't exist it was a personal account not a work or school one and i have been using it for years , then i tried to make a new account using the same email and it made a whole new account and all my data on the previous account had been deleted including minecraft which i purchased about 3 years ago so is there any thing i can do to retrieve the game and my previous data ?

    :)

    Remove account

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

    Bree, having followed your advice, a second account named "Andrew Griffin" appeared in the list of accounts on the login screen. This disappeared when I reversed the step.

    Brink, I didn't delete my account - it shows up as as "oem" in netplwiz.

    Attached a is list of accounts and you'll see that the guest account is degraded - relevant?UserAccountDetails.txt

    My account disappeared

    No Administrator account! Just Disappeared

    Chuck,
    1 Please clarify what "me" is. Is "me" the folder within C:\Users that was associated with your user account? 2 Run this command in any Command prompt or Powershell window and post the results Code:
    - If any of the entries relate to the disappeared account then please say so & tell us which one it is. 3 If any of the entries do indeed relate to the disappeared account then run this command in any Command prompt or Powershell window and post the results Code:
    where username is the relevant entry from step 2. If you are in any doubt at all you can run this command & post the results for every entry you get from step 2. I'd rather see too much data than not see the data that's relevant. And we are in different timezones so pinging back & forth with further data requests is going to use up that short period when we're both online at the same time. 4 To help interpret your reply, please explain exactly what you mean by the account having disappeared. - What did you see? - What were you doing at the time? - Is there any chance that you were experimenting with the command that can be used to disable a user account? - Does anybody else have access to your computer? - Have you scanned for malware? I expect to suggest the same procedure as Bree suggested but I just want to get the current situation clear first because I don't recall having heard of an account suddenly stop existing anymore. Fix UAC prompt has greyed out or missing Yes button - TenForumsTutorials You can ask any questions here as you go through it. Minor items - When the job's all done you can delete the defaultuser0 'user account'. It's a relic of Dell's pre-delivery setting up and ought to have been automatically deleted before you ever saw it. - You should also disable [not delete] the Guest account. It's also a relic and should not be used. Denis
