    Windows 11: Remove administrator account


    Hi thereI am not conversant with Windows 11, but with 10 & older.A friend bought a used desktop the other day with Windows 11, set with no user password required. A number of things were done under this account, including saving some new data + installing new programs. We later discovered the original user had used his Hotmail email for himself. We certainly want to get rid at least of the user with that email, or replace the email with that of the new user or delete this account, however without endangering the new data saved under it.I created a new LOCAL administrator account I prefer

    :)
