Both my administrator and personal user account are corrupted. Everytime I boot up I'm in a temporary user account. I've removed the personal user account and added a new personal one(with administrator permissions). After rebooting into the new personal one, I tried to add another personal user account using the name of the corrupted one. But I get an error message saying that I can'tl add this user name because it "already has permission to use this computer". Apparently removing the user account wasn't enough. Does anyone know what I have to do to completely remove this account so that I can use the same name again? John
