  1. Remotely delete an account from another Windows 11 laptop?


    Hi,My partner and I recently went our separate ways, with her taking our shared laptop. Before she left I removed PIN and fingerprint sign-in from my account, but didn't delete the account from the laptop.She's now refusing to delete the profile/user, however I'm concerned that since her user was set as a local administrator, she'll be able to access my files, including OneDrive, etc. which contains my personal information and is info I'll continue to use.Is there any way to remotely delete an account, or at least lock down the files, etc. tied in the users directory? I've forced logout of all

    :)

    Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

    Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

    I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

    It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

    EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown Remotely delete an account from another Windows 11 laptop? :(

    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:
