    Remove Change Account Settings in Start Menu User.


    This is a bit of an odd one to say the least. I want to Remove the Change Account Settings from the Start Menu User . . . Now this is where it gets odd. The ONLY way that I have found to achieve this is by using the Local Group Policy Editor and changing the value from Not Configured to Enabled for the below . . . This can't be RIGHT can it? There is NOT an option in . . . Settings => Personalisation => Start Settings => Personalisation => Start => Choose which Folders Appear on Start . . . or among MANY other places that I searched. I would ideally like to achieve this using a REG File. Thanks.

    :)

    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:

    Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


    Hello,
    Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
    I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
    I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
    Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
    I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
    Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers
