When you delete a user account, you can choose whether you want to keep the files created under that account; however, e-mail
messages and computer settings for the account will be deleted.
a)Open
User Accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking User Accounts and Family Safety, clicking
User Accounts, and then clicking Manage another account. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
b)Click
the account you want to delete, and then click Delete the account.
c)Decide
if you want to keep or delete the files created under the account by clicking Keep Files or Delete Files.
d)Click Delete
Account.
If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster,
use Disk Cleanup. It removes temporary files, empties the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of system files and other items that you no longer need.
