- Click on "Add someone else to this PC" or "Add a new user".
- Enter the new user's name, email address, and password.

Method 3: Create a new user account using the Command Prompt
- Open the Command Prompt as an administrator: right-click on the Start button and select "Command Prompt (Admin)".
- Type the following command and press Enter:
net user <username> *
- Replace
<username>
with the desired username. - Enter the new user's password and confirm it.
- Press Enter to create the new user account.

command creates a new user account with a random password. You can change the password later using the net user <username> *
command again.
After creating a new user account, you can log in to Windows 10 with the new user's credentials. The new user will have their own set of files, settings, and applications, which are separate from the existing user accounts on the system.
