Deleting a user account in Windows 8

Hello KSriedel,

There are few things that needs some attention.  You can only delete another account provided your account has administrator privileges. Please try the following steps:

-- Login to your default account.
-- Click on “Start” and type “User Accounts”.
-- Now, select “Settings” and then select the “User Accounts” icon.
-- Click on “Manage another account” and then select the user account that you want to delete.
-- Click on “delete the account”.
-- Depending on whether you want to “Keep the files” or “delete the files” choose the appropriate option.
-- You can delete the other accounts similarly.

For more details please refer the following video: 

** Note: Once deleted, the user accounts cannot be recovered. Make sure you back up any data if required.
