Update .Didn`t have any luck with producing my own cd,don`t know what I was doing wrong so i ordered cd off ebay.Got straight in to pc .
All the files are empty as i expected but how do i remove the actual files as i am not having any luck although i do this regularly on my laptop and other pc.Also how do I remove the user names (there are 4). Don`t know how to find out which one is administrator .followed some instructions from internet but when i go into "my computer" and right click i get manage as advised but cannot see Local users and groups .I want to remove the users as i intend giving the pc to my nephew and want it to be easy for him to use.0 -
