    Successfully removed default apps in admin account but ...


    I managed to get rid of a lot of apps in my admin account by using the code (see screenshot) but i can't remove them in user account .

    I tried the code that is supposed to prevent the user account from having all the apps re install but it didn't work for me .

    Any idea what would work to rid most of the default apps in the "user" account ?

    Thank you

    :)

  2. Deleted all administrative and users a/cs and typed net user administrative /active:no in CMD

    Hello,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10!

    Here are the steps to enable the default admin account on your computer.

    Enable default administrator account

    Click Start, type cmd in search box , Right Click CMD in the list and open as administrator

    Enter the following command to enable the hidden administrator account:
    net user administrator /active:yes

    After the account is enabled, a new user account will appear on the signin page.

    Note that the account has not assigned a password to it, and that you should consider setting one to improve account security.

    After successfully giving administrator privilege to your account and removing unwanted account, you can disable Default admin account.

    To disable type following command in Command prompt

    net user administrator /active:no

    Feel free to write us back for any further assistance with Windows, we'll be glad to assist you.

  3. User Account Control Mess

    Why do You need to remove any admin account ? You ll always need one ! I have an admin account with a blank password . Also the default hidden admin is active .

    AS i pointed out above make your account admin and take over .

    I've only had luck on one of the laptops and home using the "remove from all user" commands in powershell as admin.

    * 3Dbuilder
    Get-appxpackage -allusers | where-object {$_.packagename -like "*3dbuilder*"} | remove-appxpackage

    Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like "*3dbuilder*"} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online

    Each user musr remove the apps.

    # (To uninstall 3D Builder app for current account only)
    Get-AppxPackage *3dbuilder* | Remove-AppxPackage
