ASP.NET Machine account

Hi Ignorama,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand the inconvenience you are facing. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

I would appreciate if you can provide us the following information to help us understand the issue better.

• Are you a .net developer?
• Have you installed any program related to ASP.Net?
• Were there any recent changes made on the computer prior to the issue?
  

I would like to inform you that ASP.NET Machine Account is created when the
Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 is installed on the computer. In order for you to remove the account I would suggest that you perform the methods mentioned below:

If you are working with asp.net development work then you must keep that account, otherwise ASP.net projects will no longer function correctly.

If you are a developer and want to disable the password prompt, please follow these steps:

• Tap or press Windows Key + R.
• Type control userpasswords2 (there is a space after control) and hit enter.
• Uncheck the option “Users must enter a username and password to use this computer”.
• Click on Apply and Ok.

If you are not a developer, you may delete the ASP.NET Machine Account and check if it helps.

• Press Windows key + X key.
• Click on Control Panel.
• Under view, select large icons.
• Go to User Account.
• Click on Manage another account.
• Click on “Manage another account” and then select “ASP.NET Machine Account”.
• Click on “delete the account”.
• Depending on whether you want to “Keep the files” or “delete the files” choose the appropriate option.
• You can delete the other accounts similarly.

Note: Once deleted, the user accounts cannot be recovered. Make sure you back up any data if required.
