I am really in need of some serious help. When I rt. click start, explore,It would certainly seem that there are too many users who are members of the
click + beside HP_Pavilion (C:), Documents and Settings, there are a total
of
9 administrator accounts and 3 Owner accounts, and one with all users. My
(C:) Drive is almost completely full. This is my computer and I am the
only
user. Before i got it, it was my mothers, and there are 3 administrator
accounts with her name beside them, then 3 are mine and the last 3 say
anyone. My question is that if I get rid of all but mine, will this free
up
some space on my (C:) Drive? Also, how do I do this, I have tried and
tried
everything I know to do. When I click on DELETE, an error comes up that
says
" Cannot delete Administrator.ANYONE: Access is denied. Make sure disk is
not full or write-protected and the file is currently not in use. I did a
system recovery last week, hoping that would do the trick, but no such
luck.
Someone Please Help me.

administrators group.
Alas, you don't remove accounts by just deleting the files.
You remove them through the control panel. You can remove users through the
control panel, and you must be a member of the administrators group.
Help & Support has an article which describes the process in great detail.
Having said all this, it may not be correct that these users are the cause
of your disk problem. You need to find the big files first.
