Adding a new user to your computer is a simple process that involves a few basic steps. Before you begin, make sure you have administrative privileges, as this will allow you to create new user accounts on the device. Additionally, if you are using Windows 10, you may be prompted to enter the username and password for an existing administrator account.
1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run command box. You can also search for “run” in the Start menu.
2. Type in ‘control userpasswords2’ and press Enter. This will open the User Accounts window.
3. Click on “Manage another account” at the bottom of the window.
4. Click on “Create a new account”.
5. Enter a name for the new user and then select the type of account you would like to create. If this is an administrator account, make sure you check the “Administrator” box. Click “Create Account” to continue.
6. Select an account picture for the new user or leave the default image if you prefer. You can also choose to customize the color scheme from the current settings.
7. Type in and confirm a password for the new user if desired. You can also choose the option to create a password later.
8. Once you click “Finish”, the new user account will be created and will appear in the User Accounts window.
These are the basic steps for adding a new user to your computer. You can adjust the user’s settings, such as language and accessibility options, by selecting their account and then clicking on “Change settings”. Additionally, if the new user will be using a specific program, you may want to grant them access to the program in the Control Panel. Finally, you can delete the user account anytime by selecting the account and clicking “Delete the account”.
