How to Get Rid of Extra Admin Accounts

Question

I wanted to streamline my computer login process by minimizing the need to enter my PIN every time I return to my computer or it goes into sleep mode.

Unexpectedly, I now find myself managing a faulty Admin account, my regular User account, and an additional Admin account that I'm hesitant to interact with.

I am hoping to eliminate the two unnecessary Admin accounts while preserving my User account.

I would be grateful for any assistance you can provide.

If these accounts contain any important files, consider backing them up before deletion. Deleting accounts will result in loss of any associated files if they are not backed up. Ensure that you have at least one admin account remaining for system maintenance and management tasks.

Do not attempt to remove built-in accounts like the Administrator account or any account associated with your Microsoft account without understanding their impact.
