    [Solved] Delete "Ghost" Account?

    It wont show a users folder until its been logged in

    Note: When you want to delete a user account from your computer:

    You must be signed in as an administrator to be able to delete a user account.

    You will not be able to delete a user account that is currently signed in. You will need to sign out the user first.

    Be sure to always have at least one enabled administrator account on the PC to avoid not being able to perform actions that require administrator rights.

    Step 1: Steps to Remove a User Account in Settings

    Press Windows key, click on Settings.

    Click on Account, click on Family and other users.

    Select the user you want to delete under Other users and click on Remove.

    Accept the UAC (User Account Control) prompt.

    Select Delete account and data if you wish to delete account and the data and follow onscreen instructions.

    OR

    Step 2: Steps to Delete a User Account in Command Prompt

    Press Windows + X keys from the keyboard, select Command Prompt (Admin).

    Type net user and hit Enter to list the user accounts on your device.

    Type net user "User account " /delete and hit Enter to delete the user account.

    Two many ghost accounts on sign in

    [Solved] Delete "Ghost" Account?

    Jim,

    What's the name of the additional account? Is it similar to that of your normal user account?
    - Perhaps you can post a photo of the login screen.

    If its name is the same as your normal use then I suggest unsetting neplwiz.
