since I upgraded my lenovo x1nano to windows 11 it shipped with windows 10 and I was eligible for a free upgrade I have two accounts on my computer. One in my name and one with the same name as the computer name. I do not know and may never have known the password for the one with the computer name. But it always comes up first. I just click on the other account and sign in with a PIN. under settings/accounts, I do not see the computer name account. I do not know if it is an administrator account because I cannot see it. I would like to delete it but I cannot sign into it to do so. Perhaps

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

 

Upgrading to windows 11

I have a few questions about windows 11...

1. How many GB it is? when my pc suggested the upgrade yesterday, it said it's about 4GB just want to be sure.
   
2. I'm using a windows 10 pro so if I upgrade, will it upgrade to a windows 11 pro?
   

 

Upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10 - lost my main account HELP !


It's possible that the main administrator is disabled during upgrade. Follow these steps to activate it:

1. Press Windows + X to open the Quick Access menu and select "Command Prompt(admin)".
2. In the Command Prompt, type the net user command and it will list all existing local accounts.
3. Next type net user administrator /active:yes
4. Reboot your computer and check if you can login with the main administrator account.
