    Default Guest User Account Cancelling Issue in Windows 8

    Hi guys,

    Long time ago, my brother set a guest user account on my laptop for the sake of security. But now, I do not think it is meaningless to set the account for there are no other ones will use my laptop very often. So I want to cancel it. But I’m still worry about the missing of some data and do not know the detailed safe method to cancel. The operating system of my laptop is Windows 8 beta.

    Pls give me a hand!

    Thanks a lot!

    Right click COmputer--Management.

    Open System tools--local users and groups, click user; right click would-to-delete user account and choose remove.

    For fear of data loss, back up and then do it.

    1. Open the Control Panel (All Items View).

    2. Click on the User Accounts icon.

    3. Click on the Manage another account link.

    4. If prompted by UAC, then click on Yes.

    5. Click on the listed Guest account.

    4. If prompted by UAC, then click on Yes.

    5. Click on the listed Guest account.

    6. Click on the Turn off the guest account link.

    7. The guest account is now turned off.

    Hope this information helps.

    Hola

    Ive been reading this board for many many months but this is the first time I've finally registered and posted.

    There's a treasure trove of information here but I was wondering about additional resources you use for this type of stuff.

    Please let me know other sites/forums you use

    I'll go post an intro now!
