Recently I had a User Admin account become corrupt. After creating a ne
user account, using the hidden Administrator account, I copied an
pasted all my important documents and pictures over to that account fro
the corrupt account. I then signed in to the new ADMIN account that
just created and went to Control Panel > User Accounts, I then found th
corrupt account I needed to remove and clicked on the delete file
button. When that was done, I clicked on: Remove Account. Now I fin
that I still have the corrupt account under "Users" on "C drive". I hav
went back to User Accounts in Conrol Panel and it does not appear in th
group of user accounts listed there, only the new Admin account (that
created earlier), the Guest account (which is off), and one other use
account user account (my wifes). Now the question comes to mind... "Ho
do I remove the remainder of the old corrupt account from the computer"
