If I remove a User Account - Can I keep the files etc?

[Janine - Lakelandfundraising.co.uk]

Hopefully someone can help answer my question:-
How do i delete a user account and keep all the files and folders and emails
from M/Outlook..?

In Brief:
I set up 2x user accounts for myself, one for business and one for personal.
However it is fustrating logging in from one to the other - So i would like
to know if I delete one of the user accounts - how do i keep all the folders,
files, etc. Also the settings and emails in microsoft outlook? My partner has
his own log-in so i cannot switch off the function completely

Thanks in advance for any assistance
Kind Regards

You can use the export function in Outlook.

Sorry, put too much Express in my answer and should have taken more time.

We all go into autopilot mode.

To the OP: you still shouldn't export from Outlook. Just copy the PST
file(s) ...

"Your calendar data, as well as messages, tasks, notes, contacts, etc. are
stored in a file with a .PST extension. Look here for all the information
you need on backup and restoration of Outlook data:

Thank you for your prompt reply.
Can i just check with you - If i understand properly deleting the user
account will delete files and folders from 'My Documents'?
This means to delete the user account i need to first copy my files and
folders over to the other user account first. Those within outlook as well as
'My Documents'?
What about the other applications that i have downloaded whilst in that user
account?
I appreciate your help and apologise for my novice knowledge....
Kind Regards for now
