Notes: - To perform this procedure, you must be the member of the Power Users group who created the account or a member of the Administrators group on the local computer, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority. If the computer is joined to a domain, members of the Domain Admins group might be able to perform this procedure. As a security best practice, consider using Run as to perform this procedure. For more information, see Default local groups, Default groups, and Using Run as.
- To open Computer Management, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Computer Management.
- To remove a member from a local group, select the user account, computer account, or group account in Members, and then click Remove.
- All the rights and permissions assigned to a group are assigned to all members of that group. For more information, see Related Topics.
- Limit the number of users in the Administrators group since members of the Administrators group on a local computer have Full Control permissions on that computer.
