    remove admin from computer


    Hi,


    When my daughter was younger, I put myself as administrator to keep her from downloading stuff she shouldn't be downloading. Now that she is older it is getting annoying to have to put in my password every time she does something to her computer. Is there a way to take myself off the computer as administrator so she doesn't need me to enter my password every time? Do I make her the administrator and delete my user? Thank you.

    :)

    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:

    remove admin from computer

    Cannot access shared network drive


    I could scream! so much time wasted on this stupid error, as if time is not precious enough!
    It probably would work fine if I could see the other computer! But I cannot see the other computer!
