I have a laptop that I set up as normal when I installed win 8, with my account as the only one. It has some personal files and data that I don't mind losing but I don't want to leave them on the laptop.
I want to give it to my daughter and put her on as the main computer user/administrator and then wipe out my own account and data to save space and tidy it up.
I do not want to reinstall win or the software.
Can I do this by simply creating a new admin account for her and then once it's up and running delete my own admin account from the computer?
Will deleting an account automatically delete any personal data associated with that account, or will I have to manually remove main accounts from mail or bookmarks from Internet explorer, for example?
Thanks for any advice.
