No other problems.

Doing a account-restore without logging out first, created havoc.

Is this on an NT platform? Makes a HUGE difference.

Only on D3/NT Platforms.

Only on D3/NT Platforms, and when using delete-account.

I am running XP Pro.

I am to the point that I am going to reload Windows and see if that makes a
difference

I had a similar problem once - it had nothing to do with the O/S or pick
version. Seem there was a basic program call in a file defining item, when
certain files were deleted the program branched to a STOP command, which
caused the delete-account to terminate.

Try NT_DELETE-ACCOUNT ACCOUNTNAME

do not use the NT_ in any 2000 or xp products. it will only work with
NTWorkstation and Server.

If this still doesn't work open the file manager and delete the d-pointer
and then delete the folder from windows explorer. restart the services and
you should be good to go. You may also want to try a (o to override on 7.3

Thanks. Yes, all of my accounts are FSI. I am going to try and do a
reload
and then try your idea out. For some strange reason, even if the accounts
have all been wiped out and D3 totally reloaded it still happens. I am
wondering if I need to do a reload of Windows. I suspect that there is
still some stray setting laying around.

I delete and add accounts with D3/NT all the time, and have run into my
fair share of problems. Blanket Statement: Any time you delete or add an
account; reboot D3. No exceptions.

I have run into problems deleting accounts from TCL. For the problem
child, I usually (after shutting down D3) go into my computer, and
manually delete the sub-directory the account lives in, and then restart
D3, open the file manager (not the device manager, which is why D3 has
to be up and running), highlight the account pointer (now I going on
memory, so I may not have it exact), click on edit the data pointer, and
then delete the data pointer. Shut down D3. Double check that the
account directory is still actually gone. Reboot D3, and delete any
pointer in SYSTEM to the account.

Brute force, but it gets the account out of there. This *IS* assuming a
FSI account.
