→Deleting a User from an Ubuntu Linux System
== Deleting a User from an Ubuntu Linux System ==
An existing user may be deleted using the same ''User settings Settings'' dialog used to add a user as outlined above. Select the ''System '' desktop menu and choose ''Users and Groups '' from the ''Administration '' sub-menu to launch the User settings Settings dialog.
Select the user to be deleted and click on ''Delete''. A confirmation dialog will appear. If you wish to proceed click on ''Delete''in the confirmation dialog to commit the change.
Note that the deletion process will remove the account but leave the user's home directory intact. This will need to be deleted manually if it, and any files therein, are no longer required.
