PENDING Error When Trying to Delete Administrative User

[MLewisQMU]

Hello all,

I am unable to delete an old user who has 'Full Administrator' Security Role. When doing so I am presented with the following error:

The account I'm using to delete the user is also a Full Admin.

Has anybody encountered this before?

Thanks,

Mark

The error says you are trying to delete yourself. Use a different account to delete the account.

Hi Garth,

Thanks for the response.

Yes, I noticed that myself in the error. However, I can confirm that I am not trying to remove my own account! This happens with each account I'm trying to remove (as I'm attempting to remove users who no longer work here). I'm confused as to why I would receive this error when trying to delete accounts that aren't my own.

Yesterday I made myself admin via the SQL query detailed in the Technet article here (as the admin permission was applied to a user who is no longer working here): https://social.technet.microsoft.co...-adminquot-deleted?forum=configmanagergeneral

I wonder if this has had an adverse affect?
