Hi, I got my gateway from a guy named David and I've set
it all up, but I cannot get his name out of the system
files or remove his folder in "my computer". I used a
tweak and changed the registration name and owners name
but his name is still in all the document and settings.
They've made it so hard to change. I'm fairly new at
this, but went into the registry and saw his name in
there but don't know how to change it. Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks.
 
Right click "My Computer" and choose "Properties". Then click the
"Advanced" tab and then the "Settings" button in the "User Profiles"
section.

You should see a profile named "David" there. Select it and then choose
"Delete".
 
Thank you, but it is the only profile there now, listed
as Rose\david so and so. The delete button is faded out
and not clickable. david is not even listed in the user
accts. I am the only one and am administrator. I tried
deleting his name thru the registry but it brought me
back to the basic windows screen, no icons, folders,
files,etc, so I did a system restore to get my things
back.
