The built-in Administrator account CANNOT be deleted.

The standard security practice is to rename the built-in Administrator

account, set a strong password on it, and create another

accounts with limited privileges set, for regular use, reserving the Administrator account as a back-up in case something where to happen to your regular account.

If this administrator account is one you made yourself you can delete it.

1) Open the control panel and select the user account option.

2) Select the account you wish to delete then choose the "Delete Account".

3) Then if you wish choose the "Delete all files" option.

Is there a way to get rid of parental controls on your computer without messing up your computer?

"Parental control" is an integrated feature of the Vista and Windows 7 operating systems so it cannot be removed from the computer without removing the rest of the OS; it can be turned off if you are logged in under an administrator account. Users logged in under less privileged accounts cannot change the settings for parental controls nor turn it off. If the person(s) with administrative privileges set up parental controls, it is safe to assume they feel that they are necessary and the less privileged account users should abide by the rules implemented by the system administrator as a condition for use of the computer.


Why Microsoft developed the Windows 7?

Microsoft needed help from launching Vista, which was a downer. Vista was the beginning of a major downfall for the Microsoft Corporation. When introduced to the public, at first, Vista seemed like an interesting operating system however it was not friendly with the corporate business world and forced buyers and users to remove Windows Vista and install Windows XP. Windows Vista was slow and full of bugs. It didn't take long for Microsoft to have realized Vista failed them and didn't even compare to the sales of Windows XP. It was time to do something and thats when someone smart in Microsoft came up with the idea for Seven and when the Beta came out... I loved my Laptop. Getting rid of Vista was one of the best things i have ever done and the Beta worked fantastic for me (with all the drivers). Now windows seven is dominating the computer market and slowly but surely, it shall replace Windows XP all together especially because XP will no longer be supported past 2014. They made Windows 7 to replace XP because Vista was a huge failure.
