Hi Dennis,

OK. I kinda feel happy (understatement). I thank you again for all your very patient help. I've got exactly what we have been trying to achieve. Compared to where I was when I...

Hi Dennis,
OK. I bit the bullet with "USER". I copied everything I could see to Admin1. And then deleted "USER". I really kind of felt they were battling for supremacy between Admin1 and "USER"...
If defaultuser0 can be deleted. All the other folders are identical to defaultuser0. I'm pretty sure they can all be deleted. They don't contain anything except for the same empty folders as...

Hi Dennis,
I've been working all day (actually for many days already) to get snip & sketch back on my computer, so that I can take pictures of what I see to show you. I'm actually worn out now....
Just a quickie. So if all these 10 or so defaultuser accounts are not in "net user" list I can delete them all in file manager?
Hi Dennis,
In answer to your first post after my last post...
"move"? I can't believe I said that. I meant "use". My setup is Administrator, Admin1, Admin2, Admin3, with now the addition of...
Hi Dennis,
Well. I managed to reset my password and get into my "USER" account :) It looks ok but its maybe 3 months out of date already. But I'm not going to trust it. So I'm quite a happy man...
... duplicate message.
So if you forget your password. You are F*. Is that what you are saying. That if you forget the password it cannot be recovered anyhow? I feel sure that I've done that...
HI Denis,
OK I downloaded and installed the latest version of Windows10. It had some surprising results.
1. The biggest news was it found and installed my "USER" user and installed it into the...
Hi Denis,
I think I can say that I agree with what you are saying. I have taken these steps probably slower than you would like, so that I can understand what I am doing. Since "USER" was my main...
How? OK. I got it.

OK. I have got all my emails back and my password manger is working again. Boy it takes a lot of working out for 21 email accounts (mostly little traffic...
OK. I removed the password and disabled the account. This was not a great move. I've lost all my passwords I use on line in my password manager, and I've lost all my emails. It's going to take maybe...
I was composing a large text, and it disappeared on me hopping windows back and forth. I think on reflection, it was a good thing. OK I'm presuming at least that the Admin1/2/3 in "net user" are the...
I have to go out for a couple of hours.
So which do I believe net user, or each individiual net user? They show different number of accounts
I will run that command when I get back.
net user administrator: found
net user admin1 found
net user admin2 found
net user admin3 found
net user "user" found
all found items belongs to administrators and users.
Looking at this...

Hi Denis
I'm going to attempt this today. Admin is my Administrator Account (I thought but now not so sure). What does disable it mean? Not delete I suppose. If it's disabled, Does It still...
Hi Denis,
OK What I found out by going to Admin, Admin1, Admin2, Admin3, and logging out and trying to load Admin "USER", is it does what you suggested, It prompts to login to the user last logged...
Hi Denis,
I just woke up. I'm more confused than ever :( Most of what you have said in your last post has gone over my head. I'll have to re-read it and cogitate :( I also failed to understand how...
Hi Denis
1. "USER" Admin is the Admin account with my name on it.
2. What I'm thinking here is copy the folder c:\Users\user" to c:\Users\user1" (not created yet) and create an new admin "user1"...
I don't see the problem here. OK I was still editing that part of my message around the time you posted. AFAICT, everything is working correctly APART from "USER" Admin, which says c:\Users\USER" but...
Hi Denis,
1. I'm still struggling to actually find a suitable cut 'n paste tool, that I'm comfortable with. But in Settings Other Users, I see
Admin1 - Administrator - Local account
Admin2 -...
Hi Denis
The problem is I had a working "USER" Admin but now I don't. In the simplest of terms. I need to point "USER" Admin back from c:\users\admin\ (where it's pointing now, corruptly) to...
Sorry My typo. I meant my original c:\users\USER\ account. So you think there might still be some possibilities to recover this admin, which boots to my first ADMIN, at the moment? It's listed in...
