User Accounts

[Tracy]

I have tried setting up user accounts on XP, but it has
made everything too difficult & I want to get rid of it
and just go back to using the Administrators account, but
it wont let me delete the last user account???

Login as Administrator and Goto Control Panel > User Accounts. Delete the
other user account.

I did try this but there is no delete option for the last
account as there was for all the others. Any other ideas??

Hi Tracy, Which account you are trying to delete? Guest account cannot be
deleted. By design.

I set up an account other than guest & administrator but
I am unable to delete it and go back to just using the
administrator account as I was previously. There is
no "delete account" option when I try to delete it. We
have lost all the settings etc that we had when we were
just using the administrator account, so it would be
easier just to go back to that if possible.
