To change the user in Command Prompt (cmd), you can use the `runas` command followed by the desired user account and the command you wish to execute.
Here’s an example:
runas /user:Username "cmd.exe"
Understanding User Accounts in Windows
What are User Accounts?
User accounts in Windows are essential profiles that allow individuals to access the operating system and use its resources. Each account may have different privileges and access levels, which help maintain security and user-specific settings. There are primarily three types of user accounts:
- Administrator: This type of account has full access to the system, allowing management of other user accounts, installation of software, and access to all files.
- Standard: Standard accounts can use most software and change settings that do not affect other users. However, they cannot install software or make significant system changes.
- Guest: This is a limited account that can be used for temporary access, often with very few rights.
Role of CMD in Managing User Accounts
The Command Prompt (CMD) serves as a powerful tool for managing user accounts in Windows. It allows for quick changes and actions that would otherwise require navigating through various menus. Understanding how to manipulate user accounts via CMD can significantly enhance productivity, especially for IT professionals and advanced users.

CMD Change User Command
What is the Change User Command?
The change user command in CMD is specifically designed to facilitate the switching of user accounts within the Windows environment. It allows users to access different accounts without needing to log out of their current session. This command is especially useful in multi-user environments or when running applications with different privileges.
Syntax of the Change User Command
The syntax of the change user command follows a standard structure, enabling various options to be specified.
The basic command is:
change user [options]
Key components:
- change user: This indicates that the command is intended to switch user accounts.
- [options]: This represents a selection of parameters that further specify how the command should operate, such as the username.
Mastering User in Cmd: A Simple Guide
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Open Command Prompt
To begin using the change user command, you first need to access the Command Prompt. You can do this by:
- Searching for «cmd» in the Start menu or Cortana search bar, and selecting Command Prompt.
- Pressing `Win + R` to open the Run dialog, typing `cmd`, and hitting Enter.
2. Using the Change User Command
Now that you have accessed CMD, you can utilize the change user command. For example, you can switch to a different user by entering the username as follows:
change user /<username>
Replace `<username>` with the actual name of the user account you want to switch to.
3. Verifying the User Change
Once the change has been executed, it’s important to confirm that the user change was successful. You can do so by using the `whoami` command, which displays the currently logged-in user:
whoami
If the output shows the new username, your user switch was successful.
Common Scenarios for User Change
Switching Between Users
In many cases, you may need to quickly switch between different users. The command below demonstrates how to switch from your current account to another user account:
runas /user:UserB cmd
When you execute this command, you will be prompted to enter the password for the UserB account. Ensure you have the correct credentials to proceed.
Running Applications as Different Users
The `runas` command allows you to run specific applications as a different user. This is particularly valuable if you need to access files or applications that require administrative privileges. Here’s how to execute an application with a different user:
runas /user:UserB "C:\Program Files\ExampleApp\example.exe"
Replacing `»C:\Program Files\ExampleApp\example.exe»` with the actual path and name of the application you wish to run.

Tips and Troubleshooting
Common Errors
When using CMD to change users, you may encounter a few common errors:
- Access Denied: This often occurs if the user you are trying to switch to does not have the required permissions or if you lack sufficient privileges.
- User Not Found: Ensure that the username you are using exists. Misspellings or incorrect usernames can lead to this error.
Best Practices for User Management in CMD
Managing user accounts via CMD effectively requires attention to security and usability:
- Security Considerations: Always ensure that you are switching users in a secure environment. Avoid exposing privileged account credentials, especially on shared machines.
- Efficient Management: Regularly document user accounts and their access levels. This simplifies troubleshooting and management.

People often share their computers and devices with others. Whether your little brother or sister or one of your grandparents wants to experience the world of technology, they could cause problems with your PC or your important data because they are unfamiliar with using Windows. That is why Windows 10 allows you to create separate accounts for every user, each with their own files, settings, and apps. If your computer or device has multiple user accounts on it, here’s how to switch users in Windows 10:
IMPORTANT: Before continuing with this guide, I want to explain something important: When you switch the user in Windows 10, the user account you previously used is still signed in. If the new user shuts down the computer, the work of the initial user might get lost because that user may not have saved its data or closed its running apps. Also, the apps opened by the first user continue to run in the background, using precious hardware resources. Therefore, I recommend you use Sign Out instead of the Switch user option from Windows 10. This ensures that the initial user is logged off and all their apps are closed, freeing up resources. Having said that, if you still prefer to use Switch user instead of Sign Out > Switch user > Sign in, keep reading this guide.
1. How to switch the user in Windows 10 from the login screen
When you start your Windows 10 PC or laptop (it doesn’t matter whether it’s made by HP, Lenovo, Dell, ASUS, or some other manufacturer), the operating system takes some time to load and then displays the Lock screen. Click or tap anywhere on the Lock screen or press any key on the keyboard to see the Sign-in screen or the Login screen, as some people call it.
Welcome to the Windows 10 Lock Screen
Windows 10 shows you the user accounts on your computer in the bottom left corner of the Login screen. Select the user you want to access by clicking or tapping their name.
Change the user from the Login screen
By default, Windows 10 requests the last sign-in method used for the selected account: the password, PIN, picture password, etc. Enter the requested information to sign in to Windows 10.
Enter the sign in information of the new user
IMPORTANT: If Facial recognition (Windows Hello) is enabled, Windows 10 may automatically log you in with your default account when it detects your face. If this happens and prevents you from switching users, make sure you disable or block the camera, then try again.
If you need to change the sign-in method, click or tap the Sign-in options link, and then choose the method you want to use. After that, enter the necessary information to sign in with the user account you’ve selected.
How to switch between sign-in options
After successfully signing in, Windows 10 shows you the desktop, and you can start using your PC.
TIP: If you use a long password to sign in to Windows 10, you can set a short PIN and use it instead for faster logins. Here’s how to create and log in to Windows 10 with a PIN.
2. How to switch the user in Windows 10 from the Start Menu
If you have already signed into Windows 10, you can change the user from the Start Menu. Open the Start Menu by pressing the Windows key on your keyboard or clicking/tapping the Windows icon on the taskbar. Then, click or tap your user account picture on the Start Menu’s left bar.
Open the Start Menu and click on your user icon
A small menu pops up next to your user icon. Select the user you want to switch to. In my case, it is named Digital Citizen. There will be other users shown on your computer, and you can have more than one user listed here.
Choose the user you want to switch to
This takes you to the Login screen, where the selected user is loaded. Enter the appropriate sign-in information, and you are logged into Windows 10 with that user.
Login with the new user
NOTE: Remember that you can switch between sign-in options by clicking or tapping Sign-in options and selecting the one you want to use.
3. Switch the user in Windows 10 using a keyboard shortcut (Windows + L)
Some people are looking for a keyboard shortcut that helps them quickly switch users on their Windows 10 laptop or desktop computer. There are several shortcuts, and the easiest to use is this:
Windows + L
Press Windows + L to lock your user and switch to a new one
When you press these keys, you are locked from your user account, and the Lock screen wallpaper is shown. Click or tap anywhere to see the Login screen and choose the account you want to switch to. Enter the necessary login information, and you’re done.🙂
TIP: If you find your user password too difficult to type or you need to change it for security reasons, here’s a detailed step-by-step guide on changing your Windows 10 user account password.
4. How to switch the user in Windows 10 from the command line (CMD, PowerShell, or Windows Terminal)
If you need to work inside the Command Prompt, PowerShell, or Windows Terminal, there are two commands you can use. First, open CMD or the command-line app you prefer. Then type this command and press Enter to execute it:
tsdiscon
Run tsdiscon in CMD, PowerShell, or Terminal
When you run tsdiscon, the current user is locked, and you see the Lock screen where you can change the user and log in with a new one. Note, however, that this method doesn’t work in Windows 10 Home. When you try to run it on this edition of Windows 10, you receive an error message: “tsdiscon is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.” This command can be used only in Windows 10 Pro or other editions such as Windows 10 Enterprise.
Luckily, you can use another command that works in all editions of Windows 10:
shutdown /l
Run shutdown / in CMD, PowerShell, or Terminal
The outcome of this command is slightly different: it signs you out from Windows 10 and then displays the Lock screen. On it, click, tap, or press a key on your keyboard and choose the user you want to switch to.
5. How to change the user in Windows 10 with CTRL + ALT + DEL
Another keyboard shortcut that you can use for switching users in Windows 10 is this:
CTRL + ALT + DEL
Pressing these keys works only when you are already signed into Windows 10 with a user account. And when you press them, you see the Ctrl Alt Delete screen with the options below. Click or tap on Switch user.
Choose Switch user in the Ctrl Alt Delete screen
The Login screen is shown, and this is where you can select the user you want to switch to. Enter the appropriate login information, and you’re done.🙂
6. How to switch the user in Windows 10 using ALT + F4
This method also works only if you are already logged in with a user account. First, go to the Windows 10 desktop and make sure all apps are minimized. Then press these keys on your keyboard:
ALT + F4
You see the Shut Down Windows prompt, asking you to choose what you want the computer to do. Click or tap the drop-down list.
The Shut Down Windows prompt
Choose Switch user in the list and click or tap OK.
Choose Switch user and press OK
You are taken to the Login screen to select the user you want to switch to.
TIP: If you need to change the permissions of a user account, here’s how to change an account to Administrator and back in Windows 10.
7. How to switch the user in Windows 10 while being asked for a picture password
If the most recent user account that has signed in to Windows 10 was using a picture password, when you are at the login screen, you see that user account and the picture they use as a password. Under the user account name, you have two links: one for accessing other sign-in options for the same user account and one for switching users. Click or tap Switch user.
Choose Switch User before entering the picture password
This displays a list of the existing user accounts on your Windows 10 computer or device. Click or tap the user that you want to switch to.
Choose another user account
Then, you are asked to enter the login details that were used previously for that account: the password, PIN, or picture password.
TIP: If you have too many user accounts on your Windows 10 computer, here’s how to remove an account from Windows.
8. How to switch the user in Windows 10 from the Task Manager
This method is cumbersome to use, and it works only after you have signed in with all the user accounts you want to use. First, access the Task Manager (a quick way to do this is to press Ctrl+Shift+Esc on your keyboard), and if it opens in its compact view, click or tap More details.
Click or tap More details in Task Manager
Then, go to the Users tab and right-click (or press and hold) the user account you want to switch to. In the menu that pops up, choose Switch user account.
Switch user account from Task Manager
If you don’t see another user account on this list, it’s because it didn’t sign in earlier to Windows 10. In this situation, you can right-click (or press and hold) on your user, choose Disconnect, and confirm your choice.
Disconnect from the current user account
You then see the Lock screen. Click or tap on it, or press a key on your keyboard, and then choose the user you want to switch to.
TIP: If multiple people use your computer, and not everybody has their own user account, here’s how to create new Windows user accounts.
Did you successfully change the user on your Windows 10 PC, laptop, or tablet?
I went through a lot of research and testing to make this guide, and I hope you like the result. These are all the methods I know for changing the user signed in to Windows 10. Try them all out and choose the ones you prefer. And if you know any other method to switch the user in Windows 10, let me know using the commenting options below. Thanks for reading! 🙂
In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the net user command to create, delete and change user accounts in the Windows command prompt (CDM).
We can perform the following tasks using the net user command:
- View user accounts.
- Add and Remove user accounts.
- Activate and Deactivate user accounts.
- Change the user password.
If you are operating in an Active Directory domain environment, always use the /domain command switch to execute the net user command on the domain controller rather than on the local computer.
Examples
List users on the local computer:
net userList users on the domain controller:
net user /domainThis command displays detailed information about the Administrator account:
net user AdministratorCreate a user named user1 with a password of strongPassword:
net user /add user1 "strongPassword"Delete the user user1 from the computer:
net user /delete user2This command enables the built-in Administrator account on Windows 10/11:
net user Administrator /active:yesThis command sets (changes) the Administrator account password:
net user Administrator "adminPassWord"Execute the following command to disable the Administrator account on Windows 10/11:
net user Administrator /active:noThis command forces the user user1 to change the password at the next logon:
net user user1 /logonpasswordchg:yesCreate a user; the user must change the password at the next logon:
net user /add user1 "strongPassword" /logonpasswordchg:yesCreate a new user; the account expires on January 31st:
net user /add user1 "strongPassword" /expires:01/31/2023Command Options
| username | The name of the user to create, delete, view, or modify. |
| password | Password for the user. |
| * | Use this option to produce a prompt for the password. |
| /add | Use this option when you want to create a new user. |
| /delete | Use this option to remove a user from the Windows system. |
| /active:{yes | no} | Activates or Deactivates a user. The default is yes when creating a new user. |
| /expires:{date | never} | Use this option to set the expiration date (mm/dd/yy) for an account. The default is never. |
| /fullname:»name» | Full name of the user. |
| /passwordchg:{yes | no} | Specifies whether users can change their own password. The default is yes. |
| /passwordreq:{yes | no} | No means the user can log in without a password. The default is YES. |
| /logonpasswordchg:{yes|no} | Specifies whether the user should change the password at the next logon. The default is NO. |
| /homedir:path | The home directory location. |
| /comment:»text» | Use this option to add a description to the user’s account. |
You can view the manual page by typing net help user at the command prompt.
View a User
When you execute the net user command without any options, it displays a list of user accounts on the computer.
net userYou will see an output similar to the following:
Add the /domain command switch if you want to list users on the Active Directory Domain controller.
net user /domainTo see detailed information about a particular user, execute the command net user Username, where the Username is the name of the user you want to view. For example, you can view the Administrator account by running the following command:
net user AdministratorCreate and Delete User Accounts
To create a user account, use the following syntax:
net user /add UserName PasswordFor example, the following command creates a user named user1 with a password of strongPassword:
net user /add user1 "strongPassword"Use an asterisk (*) in place of the password to produce a prompt, as shown in the following example:
net user /add user1 *
Alternatively, you can also use the /random option to generate a strong random password, as shown in the following example:
net user /add user1 /randomThe randomly generated password will be displayed on the command prompt after you execute the command.
To delete a user, use the following syntax:
net user /delete UserNameThe following command deletes the user user1 from the computer:
net user /delete user2Change Passwords
To change passwords, use the following syntax:
net user UserName New-PasswordUse an asterisk (*) or /random in place of the password to produce a prompt or generate a random password:
net user UserName *
net user user1 /randomNotes
The net user command is most of the time used in Windows Server to manage Active Directory users.
Windows 10/11 uses a new Settings pane to manage users, but the net user command is still useful for some tasks. For example, if you want to activate the built-in Administrator account, it is easy to do that using this command.
While working at the command prompt, run the net help user command to see all available command options.
In the next tutorial, we are going to learn how to manage Windows groups using the net localgroup CMD command.
If you have more than one user account on your PC then using Fast User Switching you can easily switch between different user account without needing to sign out from any user account. But to do that you need to learn different methods to switch between user accounts in Windows 10 and this post, we will learn how to do so exactly. If you don’t have Fast User Switching enabled by default, then head over here to learn How to Enable or Disable Fast User Switching in Windows 10.
Once you have enabled Fast User Switching, then you can continue with this guide. Just make sure to save any work which you might be doing before switching user. The reason behind this is that you might lose your open word document or any other work as Windows doesn’t automatically save them for you. So without wasting any time let’s see How to Switch User in Windows 10 with the help of the below-listed tutorial.

Make sure to create a restore point just in case something goes wrong.
Method 1: How to Switch User from the Start Menu
If you are already signed into Windows 10 with your user account, then don’t worry you can still switch to the different user account from Start Menu. Click on the Start button from the bottom-left then click on your user account picture and from the context menu select the user account you want to switch to.
You will be directly taken to the log-in screen of the user account you selected, enter the password or PIN, and you would successfully sign-in to this user account. You can again switch back to your original user account by following the same steps.
Method 2: How to Switch User using Windows Key + L
If you want to switch to a different user account while you have already sign-in into another user account, don’t worry press the Windows Key + L combination on the keyboard.
Once you do that, you would be directly taken to the lock screen, and in the process, you will be locked from your user account. Click anywhere on the lock screen, and you would be shown the login screen from where you can choose any user account that you wish to sign into.
Method 3: How to Switch User from Login Screen
The first thing you see when you start your PC is the sign-in screen, where by default the most recent user account you used to sign-in is selected and you could directly login by entering the password or PIN.
But if you want to select another user account from the sign-in screen, click on the available user accounts from the bottom-left corner of the screen. Select the account then enter password or PIN to sign-in to that particular account.
Method 4: How to Switch User using ALT + F4
Note: Make sure you have saved all of your work and close any open application before following this method, or pressing ALT + F4 will close all your apps.
Make sure you are on the desktop, if not then go to the desktop and make sure you click in an empty area on the desktop to make it your current focused (active) window once you have done that, press and hold ALT + F4 key combination together on your keyboard. This will show you the shut down prompt, from the shutdown drop-down select “Switch User” and click OK.
This will take you to the login screen where you can select any user account you want, enter the correct login information and you are good to go.
Method 5: How to Switch User using CTRL + ALT + DELETE
This method only works if you are already logged in with a user account, and you want to switch to another user account. Now press CTRL + ALT + DELETE key combination on your keyboard then you would be taken to a new screen, click “Switch user“. Again, this would take you to the login screen where you can select any user account you wish to switch to.
Method 6: How to Switch User from Task Manager
If you are already signed into Windows 10 with your user account, don’t worry, you can still switch to Task Manager’s different user account. To open Task Manager, simultaneously press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC key combination on your keyboard.
Now make sure to switch to Users tab then right-click on the already signed in the user account that you want to switch to and then click Switch user account. If this doesn’t work, select the already signed user that you want to switch to and click on the Switch user button. You will now be directly taken on the sign-in screen of the selected user account, enter the password or PIN to successfully sign-in to the particular user account.

Рассмотрена методика создания учетных записей Windows 11. Изучены способы удаления и изменения типа аккаунта. Отражены подходы к предоставлению пользователю прав администратора. При необходимости отдельные аккаунты будут у тех, кто работает за общим компьютером:
- детей;
- членов семьи;
- гостей;
- сотрудников в офисе.
Перестанет быть нужным — удалим без проблем. Интересная фишка для общительных — создать учетную запись для друзей и родни, которые «зависают» в интернете с вашего настольного ПК или ноутбука. Даже одному человеку может потребоваться минимум три аккаунта:
- рабочий;
- личный;
- геймерский.
Опытные пользователи предпочитают не смешивать учетные записи для выполнения различных задач. Ниже риск удалить рабочие проекты, когда развлекаемся — смотрим фильмы или общаемся в соцсетях. Приложения и файлы упорядочены — выше конфиденциальность и приватность. Не отправим по ошибке личное фото коллеге или, наоборот, что-то из рабочего проекта другу. Планируем установить новую программу или игру, попробовать новые для себя настройки ОС — создадим временный аккаунт, который будет удален, когда наиграемся или оценим, насколько полезно нам приложение.

Листать меню ОС — слишком долго. Начнем с методов, которые применяют опытные ИТ-специалисты.
Действуем через терминал Windows PowerShell
У древней командной строки Command Prompt есть удобная продвинутая альтернатива — терминал Windows PowerShell, с помощью которого мы сейчас и создадим учетную запись. Введите PowerShell в строке поиска на Панели задач. Запустите найденное приложение от имени администратора.
Именем пользователя в третьем примере будет: poznyaev-ru-2023-3. Поэтому мы вводим:
net user poznyaev-ru-2023-3 20242024 /add
Жмем Enter и пользователь poznyaev-ru-2023-3 успешно создан. Вы указывайте удобные и подходящие вам имя и пароль.
При необходимости наделим данного пользователя привилегиями админа:
net localgroup Администраторы poznyaev-ru-2023-3 /add
Нажимаем Enter и готово — задача успешно выполнена.
В командной строке Command Prompt
Как системный администратор предпочту создать учетную запись через командную строку — Command Prompt. Займет меньше времени, чем навигация по меню Windows. Метод выручает и тогда, когда не получается найти нужный пункт в настройках. В поле поиска на Панели задач введите «Командная строка». Выберите «Запуск от имени администратора».
Введите команду net user с указанием имени пользователя и пароля:
net user <имя-пользователя> <пароль-учетной-записи> /add
Запомнить данную команду будет несложно, особенно если знать, что «add» в переводе с английского означает «добавить». В данном примере именем будет poznyaev-ru-2023-2, а пароль: 20232023.
Указывайте подходящее вам имя пользователя, а пароль придумывайте посложнее — такой, который не будет просто подобрать. Нажимаем Enter и задача успешно выполнена, причем быстро. Так обычно и действуем, когда нужно создать аккаунты десяткам сотрудников компании-заказчика.
Вы можете предоставить ранее созданному локальному аккаунту Windows права админа. Рассмотрим на примере учетной записи poznyaev-ru-2023-2. Формат команды:
net localgroup Администраторы <имя-пользователя> /add
В данном примере:
net localgroup Администраторы poznyaev-ru-2023-2 /add
Далее надо нажать Enter. Подскажем простой способ проверить получилось ли у нас все правильно. Повторно применяем команду. Если вышло как надо, появится сообщение о том, что указанная учетная запись уже входит в эту группу.
После успешного применения команды закройте командную строку. Теперь располагаем учетной записью poznyaev-ru-2023-2 с правами администратора. Не рекомендовано «сидеть в Windows под админом», то есть — работать из учетной записи администратора. Лучше выполнять повседневные задачи в аккаунте обычного пользователя — ниже риск что-то сломать в операционной системе или подцепить вредоносный софт.
Создайте локального пользователя в Параметрах — просто, наглядно, но долго
Продолжаем и рассмотрим простой метод — через графический интерфейс (GUI) операционной системы. Способ подходит начинающим пользователям и каждому, кому неуютно в командной строке и кто предпочтет потратить немного больше времени на навигацию по меню настроек. Зато команды не придется вводить. Войдите в учетную запись администратора. Кликните правой кнопкой по «Пуску». Затем выберите «Параметры» (приложение настроек ОС) из меню опытного пользователя.
Выберите «Учетные записи» на левой панели окна настроек. Справа откройте «Семья и другие пользователи».
Кликните по кнопке «Добавить учетную запись» на плитке «Добавить другого пользователя» в разделе «Другие пользователи» в правом окне системных настроек.
Windows очень хочет, чтобы вы создали учетную запись Microsoft. На первый взгляд альтернативные варианты отсутствуют. Тем не менее, опция создания локального аккаунта сохранена — кликните «У меня нет данных для входа этого человека».
Выберите «Добавить пользователя без учетной записи Майкрософт» из предложенных системой вариантов — кликните по соответствующей ссылке.
Далее введите данные, которые требуются для создания учетной записи. Придумайте имя пользователя и надежный пароль. В данном примере имя пользователя: poznyaev-ru-2023-1. Уверены, что имя и пароль введены правильно? Тогда жмите «Далее». Выберите вопросы и дайте ответы. Данная опция позволит восстановить забытый пароль. Нажмите «Далее».
Задача успешно выполнена: созданный аккаунт присутствует в списке учетных записей.
Пароль запоминаем или записываем в таком месте, куда у посторонних точно не будет доступа. Итогом наших действий стало создание трех новых локальных учетных записей. Два аккаунта — с правами администратора. На практике привилегии админа направо и налево не раздаем. Предоставляем лишь тем пользователям, которым данные права необходимы.
Удаление учетной записи пользователя Windows 11
Удалим пользовательский аккаунт командой или в «Параметрах» системы.
Быстрый метод — в PowerShell
Предположим, аккаунт poznyaev-ru-2023-2 (в вашем случае будет любое другое имя) был создан временно и потребности в данной учетной записи более нет. Удалим простой командой в PowerShell. Первым делом открываем данный инструмент с правами администратора, как показано выше.
Затем вводим команду:
net user poznyaev-ru-2023-2 /delete
Нажимаем Enter. Появилось сообщение об успешном выполнении операции — значит, удален.
Визуально — в Параметрах
Нажмите клавиши Win + I для перехода в «Параметры». Слева выберите «Учетные записи», а справа — «Семья и другие пользователи». Справа на плитке учетной записи, которую вы хотите удалить, кликните по стрелке вниз.
Нажмите кнопку «Удалить» справа от надписи «Учетная запись и данные».
Ознакомьтесь с предупреждением операционной системы об удалении аккаунта и данных. Если принимаете — нажмите «Удалить учетную запись и данные». Если передумали или нужно сделать резервные копии фото, загруженных файлов, документов или другой информации — кликните «Отмена».
Помним, удаление учетной записи необратимо. Потеряны также связанные с аккаунтом данные и настройки. Впрочем, ценные файлы можно потерять и в результате сбоя системы или поломки диска. Поэтому не храню ценную информацию на компьютере. Предпочитаю надежный и простой в использовании сервер. Например, четырехдисковый NAS TerraMaster F4-210, обзор которого «Блог системного администратора» недавно публиковал:
Файлы доступны по сети со всех десктопов, ноутбуков, смартфонов и планшетов пользователя. Настраиваем зеркалирование и данные останутся у нас даже при выходе из строя HDD или SSD.
Как изменить тип локальной учетной записи пользователя Windows 11 в Параметрах
В дальнейшем нам может потребоваться поменять тип одной или нескольких учетных записей. Первым делом откройте «Параметры» — нажмите Win + I на клавиатуре. В категории «Учетные записи» (слева) настроек выберите подкатегорию «Семья и другие пользователи» (справа). Выберите учетную запись, в которую желаете внести изменения и кликните по стрелке справа от имени аккаунта.
