Go to Administrative Tools --> Computer Management. On the left hand side you should see Local Users and Groups. Click users. In the main it will list the local users for your computer. Just right click the user name and select delete. BTW, you cannot delete the user that you are signed in as. You will need to be signed in under a separate user than the one you wish to delete. Given that your description states that you are wanting to remove a secondary account then I don't see any of this being an issue.

My new apple id wont work on my updates

Your old Apple ID is linked to your payment card you might need to change this

you might not have deleted your old Apple ID

Open iTunes, click on the "down arrow" next to your account ID in the upper-right corner and choose "Account." Enter your Account ID and password and then click "Sign In." Select "Edit" next to Payment Type. Choose "None" for the payment type. Remove your billing information and click "Done." Change the information in your account. Most fields can not be left blank, so your best option is to alter the information, removing your personal details and replacing them with made-up information. Abandon the account. If you were once active in the Apple Support forums, avoid logging in and participating in discussions any longer. Your discussions will not be deleted, but will eventually be archived and go dormant. If all else fails or you need more concrete account deletion, contact Apple directly and explain to them your situation (see Below). http://www.apple.com/support/expert/ Plead your case and they may be able to assist you in deleting the account or migrating the information over to a new account.

HOW CAN I GET BACK TO MY TRUSTED YAHOO MAIL ACCOUNT [email protected] ??? HELP PHILLIP 416 858 3761 TORONTO ITS DISAPPERED??

HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN INACTIVE ?

Your Yahoo ID is linked to a broad array of Yahoo services, from Yahoo Messenger to online games. A Yahoo ID must be deleted from a laptop or desktop, not a mobile device. Only get rid of your Yahoo ID if you're certain you'll never need it again, because there is no option to change your mind and get your ID back once it's gone.

Deleting a Yahoo ID
When you delete a Yahoo ID, you lose access to all programs associated with it, including Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Groups and Yahoo Finance Portfolio. Deleting your Yahoo ID will not remove your listing from the Yahoo People Search, however, so your profile will continue to appear in search results unless you delete your listing before deleting your ID. Lost Information b> When a Yahoo ID is removed from the system, Yahoo deletes all of the data associated with the account, including your email messages. You cannot recover this information once it is removed; creating a backup copy of your data on a computer or external storage device is the only way to preserve it for future reference. b> Reactivating Dormant Email As long has your Yahoo email has only gone dormant -- and not been deleted as the result of an ID termination -- you can reactivate the account. Yahoo automatically makes an email account dormant if the user hasn't signed in more than four consecutive months. To reactivate such an email account, you must sign in via computer using your Yahoo ID and password, and choose "Reactivate Without Account Protection." Yahoo permanently deletes old emails when an account is deactivated, but you can resume sending and receiving email once you reactivate the account. b> Considerations b> Some premium services are not cancelled along with a Yahoo ID deletion. If you signed up for a paid service, such as Yahoo Mail Plus, the company recommends manually canceling the service -- independent of your Yahoo ID deletion -- to avoid future bills. Canceling a Yahoo ID doesn't disqualify you from signing up again in the future with a new ID, but you cannot reactivate the same ID. Hope this helps.
