    Windows 10 Remove new Accounts


    I'm not able to remove some sort of hidden account?

    Screenshot - 17d2851495831139a2208a025c6feeda - Gyazo

    I am the only administrator on this account and there are no other accounts / guest account active. No accounts are showing up under Settings > Accounts also.

    EDIT: Or how do I completely remove a profile?

    :)

    how to remove a microsoft account from administors in WINDOWS10 system

    I created a microsoft account when I upgraded windows 7 to 10. Then I found it is tied to administors and it can't be deleted or removed from windows 10, even I created a new local account which is set as an administor account. There is no delete or remove
    icon for this account in settings.

    IIS AppPool accounts are not real accounts. You would remove this by going into IIS Manager, going to the App Pools section and deleting the DefaultAppPool. It may also work to uninstall IIS, but I'm not 100% sure that would remove the app pool account.
