Vista Home Premium delete / rename the Administrator user account

In this post we will speaking about how to rename/delete the administrator user account in Windows Vista Home Premium operating system.
Windows Vista Home Premium don’t have in the computer management, in the MMC snap in, the Local Users and Groups selections tree, so the fast way to delete/rename completely * an administrator user account, it is to create a new one, and then delete the old one. (Pay attention)
So, go to Control Panel and select User Accounts and choose to create a new administrator user account with administrator’s privileges. The new user account cannot have the same name as the existing administrator user account. Once you have created the new settings, logoff or restart and login with the new administrator account, go to control panel/user accounts again and delete previously unwanted accounts.
* Please remember that you have a couple of things to do yet, delete the previous user folder in the computer/users path, and check the computer name.

Run cmd prompt from the start menu and write this command line for login as administrator
