Adding Users Accounts to Windows 10

Adding user accounts to Windows 10 is quite straight forward taking no more than a minute or so to achieve. This short guide will show you the steps involved in creating new user accounts. The only condition to creating the new account is the existing user must be logged in as an administrator.

First step is to click on the Windows 10 icon located on the bottom left of the desktop.

Next you’ll have to either enter an Email address, sign up for a new Email address, or simply sign in without a Microsoft Account.

Additionally you can choose to set up a User Account for a child, which allows a parent to set limits on a childs internet abilities and also facilitates reports on internet activities.

Then Click “Next”

If after clicking “Next” and you have attempted to make a new account by “Sign in without a Microsoft account” you will see this screen to entice you to use a Microsoft Account instead. So again make your choice. If you then decide to use an existing email, or opt for a new Microsoft Email account you’ll go back to the previous screen.
