Hello all. I recently deleted a limited user account that wasn't being used.
When I tried to delete it's folders in Explorer I got a message telling me
that one was a system folder and 'would I like to continue' I didn't but
would like to know what I should do about this.
In user accounts in control panel the only accounts showing are mine, and
the guest which is off. If I go into control panel>system>advanced>user
accounts there is my own account plus another. Is that the old account and
can I delete it? Or is it something to do with the innactive guest account.

Go to Control Panel/system/advanced/user profiles - settings and delete
orphaned user profiles there while logged on as an administrator. That way
you will be sure not to delete something you should not. You are also given
the opportunity to delete a user's files when you delete the user account.
