How to Create a Guest Account on Windows 11?
This video will guide you on How to Create a Guest Account on Windows 11. A guest account is valuable if you want to share your computer with someone to have their own space and access their personal stuff. This gearupwindows article will show you how to create a guest account in Windows 11. On Windows 8 and 7, it was easy to create a dedicated guest account. These accounts had limited access to your computer. For example, guest accounts couldn’t install software or change system settings. Unfortunately, it’s not as easy as it once was to create a guest account in Windows. However, we will show you two methods to create a Guest account on your Windows 11 PC to make the process easy. You can use either that you would like to use. Starting Windows 10, Microsoft has hidden the guest account feature. But, Microsoft still reserves the “Guest” name for guest accounts, but it’s impossible to create the same type of guest accounts that was available before Windows 10. That means you can not access an inbuilt guest account; instead, you’ll need to create a local account that doesn’t require a password. However, the limitation for this guest will not be the same as you had seen in Windows 8/7. That means they can install software and adjust settings, but it won’t affect your profile. How to Set Up a Guest Account using Windows 11 Settings? To make a guest account through Windows 11 Settings, First, open the Settings app using Windows + I keys on the keyboard. Then, select the Account category in the left side pane of the Settings window. After that, click the Family & other users tile on the right pane of your screen. When the Family & other users settings page opens, under the “Other Users” section, click the button Add account beside the “Add other user” option.
