Once again, the computers win. nothing seems to work unless you are a complete computer geek. Us average users cant do anything about this simple junk that should be as easy as loggint into our desktop.

I have a disabled admin user account which when I go in user accounts does not give me the option to delete. If I go into other accounts it does not bring this account up at all. But when we log in it goes straight into this old user account and we have to log out and log in to the new one... any ideas

I saved the files but I'm unable to find the file on my computer.

Where is it stored?

And there is no way to delete a Guest account you can only disable it.

run command as Admin. in command, type: net user Administrator /active:yes
log out, log into Super Admin account, delete from there. Any questions, please email me: iforsaken.0@gmail.com

You can only disable a guest account. There is no way of deleting it as it is written to the hard drive along with the OS. Do not try to delete it.

You can only delete another Admin account IF you have permission to do so. The only way to tell for sure is to go to the Super Admin account...and look at there permissions. Any questions: iforsaken.0@gmail.com

There should only be 1 Super Admin account... log into that. Delete the accounts from there. Commands you will need are as follows:
cmd.exe(run as Administrator)
type in command: net user Administrator /active:yes
This makes Super Admin active. DO NOT over use this account... this account is the heart of your computer. Once logged in, go to control panel, users, manage accounts, then delete. Click keep files if files are important. Continue to delete account. Any questions beyond this, please email me at iforsaken.0@gmail.com.

There is no way to "delete" the guest account, you can only disable it/turn it off.
