Using the PC Expanion (Advanced) Part 8
1. How to add a new user account
User accounts personalize Windows for each person who shares a
computer. You can choose your own account name, picture, and
password, and choose other settings that will apply only to you. A
user account gives you a personalized view of your own files, a list of
favorite Web sites, and a list of recently visited Web pages. With a user
account, documents you create or save are stored in your own My
Documents folder, separate from the documents of others who also
use the host PC. To help keep your files more secure and to help make
sure they remain private, use a password for your user account. You
can still mark certain items as shared if you want other people to be
able to access them. If you do not use a password for your user
account, other people will have access to your account and will be
able to see all of your folders and files. If you have a user account and
you change the computer settings, such as the type, size, or the
screen saver, those settings will apply only to your account. As a user
with a computer administrator account, you can create, delete, and
change all user accounts on the host PC. You can create as many
accounts on the computer as you want, and have full access to all
accounts on the computer.
