Removing a windows XP account and all things associated with it... help?

4 replies · 1,052 views · Started 11 June 2005

Basically, what it says. Is there a system option, somewhere, like a large scale add/remove progs, or do I have to do it manually?
It's not hard to just delete all my files, and remove the account, but I'd like to remove everything I installed, also.
It'd be greatly appreciated, I need this info by tuesday, which is the day I'm moving.
Oh yeah.

sounds like your best option (and fastest) is to reformat and reinstall the operating system. 😊

Well, my mother would like all of my files removed from the system. I cannot format - they value there data, and I don't have a copy of the OS either.
I just need my entire account removed, while everything else remains intact.

You'll have to do it manually, unless it would be less work to back up your mom's stuff and then reformat.
