Adding and modifying user accounts
You can create and customize a user account for each person who uses your computer. You can
also change between user accounts without turning off your computer.
User account tips
• If you want to create an account for someone, but you do not want that user to have full
access to your computer, be sure to make that account limited. Remember that limited
accounts may not be able to install some older programs.
• Files created in one account are not accessible from other accounts unless the files are stored
in the Shared Documents folder. The Shared Documents folder is accessible from all accounts
on that computer
and from other computers on the network.
