If you set up separate user accounts for each person that uses your computer, you can keep all of your files and settings separate. When a person signs into their user account, they will see their own files and libraries and will not be able to access anything that belongs to the other users. We'll see how to create new user accounts and set up parental control options.
- [Nick] Let me ask you a quick, important question.…Are you the only person who uses your computer?…If the answer is yes, then you might not be interested…in this movie, but if you share your computer…with other people, especially with children,…you might want to consider setting up…separate user accounts.…Having separate user accounts for each person…is almost like having completely separate computers.…You share the same hard drive space and applications,…but everything else is separate and personalized.…So if you start up your computer…if you have multiple user accounts set up,…you'll see this screen.…
This is the login screen,…and I can see my user account.…That's the one with my name on it.…There's another user account here…with another person's name, and in this movie I'll show you…how to set up other user accounts.…And then there's an option for a guest user,…which we'll also talk about.…So if you start up your computer…and you have multiple accounts, you'll see these options.…You'll choose your user account,…
