I get a computer management window open - it says computer management (Local) +System Tools +storage +Services and applications and nothing like that opens in the + tree.

Right-click on MY COMPUTER and select MANAGE. Go to LOCAL USERS AND GROUPS > USERS and delete his name/identity. Then, also delete c:\documents and settings\username. ========================== Sir Troth ICQ: 1717439 AIM/AOL: SirTrothX Yahoo Messenger: SirTroth MSN: SirTroth@xxxxxxxxxxx ========================== -----Original Message----- From: pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cris Sent: Wednesday, April 06, 2005 10:50 AM To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- removing identity on xp my old computer has 3 identities on it. They all have administrator rights. I want to remove my son's identity, as he no longer uses that computer. He did install some programs through his identity though. Will I have problems if I remove his identity? He has active programs like outlook express on his name. Plus, the *&^% child of mine has his name password protected. I am assuming I can get him to unpassword protect his name. what about the other stuff? and exactly how do I remove his identity? thanks! cris <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> PLEASE: STOP E-MAIL HARVESTING Protect your friends and family: Do not give my e-mail address to any person or web site.
