hi,

I had two old user accounts but removed them from the control panel. Only 1 user account in my device. The issue is that when I go to the users folder, the old user accounts folders are still there despite the accounts are removed. How can I remove those folders. I do not want old user accounts folders.

    Did you try just deleting them using the Trash Can icon?
