So I have a user in my account settings: ".testUser".
Whenever I try to delete this user, it doesn't delete. And it's name changes to nothing, it's blank. After I do that I cannot right-click and go to advanced options, I cannot reset password, I cannot change pictures, nothing.
If I close and restart the accounts preferences then it shows up again as ".testUser" and I can do all of those things. If I change anything now it will go back to being blank again.
Also, I have created test users before with a dot in front of it's name and deleted those plenty of times so I don't see how it's the name.
I just want to delete this user. I have tried the terminal command "dscl . delete /Users/.testUser" but that just gives me an error, saying it cannot find that user or something. I have also tried doing all of the above in root.
Thank you.
