Type in the logon name you wish to use for the computer user in the User
Name field. The Full Name and Description fields are optional.
Type in, twice, a password for this user account.
For a typical home setting, you can clear the User Must Change Password
at Next Logon check box and check the Password Never Expires check box.
Out of respect for the other users, you should tell them to change their password
to one of their choice??”as an Administrator, you can always reset the
password if they forget it.
Click the Create button to complete the new account creation process. You
will return to a fresh New User dialog box for the entry of more new user
account information.
Repeat this process for all of the user accounts you need to create. After creating
the last user account, click the Close button to return to the Computer
Management console.
Each of the new accounts you create is set to User privilege??”they cannot install
or remove software or printers, nor do much of anything but use software and manage
their own documents. This level is quite adequate for most day-to-day computer
use, but some users may need to have more control??”especially to help and support
basic User accounts.
