"Try this command line

net user yourUserNameHere /DELETE

For example, if your test username is ""ABCD"" you'd run this:

net user ABCD /DELETE

Make sure you're logged on as an administrator of the machine."

If you want to try a different GUI, right-click on My Computer and select Manage. In the Computer Management window select Local Users and Groups > Users. In that view, right-click the User and select Delete.
