Title: How to delete a user from a site collection
Details: Some one asked me to post a sample of code to acheive the above subject. So, here is the code. However let me explain few things so that you can proceed and alter few things.
#1 you can run though the SPUserCollection that you can get from web.SiteUsers collection and find more than 1 person. In general case if it is only 1 user, then use the below code.
#2 do trip between web.Users Vs web.SiteUsers. SiteUsers is the SiteCollection users and web.user is the user object.

Code:
static void RemoveUserFromSiteCollectionByUserName(string siteUrl, string userName) { using (SPSite siteCollection = new SPSite(siteUrl)) { using (SPWeb web = siteCollection.OpenWeb()) { SPUser user = web.SiteUsers[userName]; try { if (!user.IsDomainGroup && !user.IsSiteAdmin) { web.SiteUsers.Remove(user.LoginName); web.Update(); } } catch (Exception ex) { // user not found } } } }
