Synopsis

Control Panel → User Accounts

The User Accounts window lets you add or remove user accounts, change the privileges of existing users, and choose how users log on and off. Click Change an account to change your password or choose a new icon to appear in the Start Menu and Welcome screen. Use Create a new account to add an account for a new user, either to be used by someone sitting down in front of your machine, or someone connecting remotely with a Remote Desktop or accessing your files and printers with My Network Places. Finally, click Change the way users log on or off to choose between the new Welcome screen and the more traditional logon screen. All the settings in this dialog are also covered in Chapter 4.
