Windows 7: How to disable other users

Hi-first post. Did a search, nothing was quite the same as my situation.

System is a new laptop that arrived with Windows 7. Only one user, and set up myself as Administrator.



I will be the ONLY user EVER on this pc. Is there a way to remove any instances (login etc) where I get the option to switch user?

Also I am sick of trying to do something and being told by the OS that I must have Administrator privileges to do that. Well that's kind of stupid- as the only user and being set up as Administrator that infuriates me. It also tells me something is not working correctly- either by MS design or bug I suppose- and that actually frightens me.

Thanks.

I run Windows 7 Ultimate and have enabled the built in administrator account. It does not give me complete control without the "annoyances". From what I can see the built in account is no different than my own administrator account. I am not seeking to do away with the annoyances; I'm just curious about my setup.

Oops, it looks like the post I quoted was deleted.

Hello Madkiwi, and welcome to Seven Forums.

This may be able to help. It removes "Switch User" from everywhere. It's the same in Windows 7 as Vista.

Hope this helps,

I didn't think to look there, and never did use Vista.

Thanks, it worked.

That is a good tutorial. Thanks.

You're welcome. I'm happy to hear that you got it sorted.
