Information
You need a user account to use Windows, and if you share a single PC with other people, each person should have their own account. Each person can customize their account with their own settings and preferences, like a desktop background or screen saver. User accounts also help control which files and apps each person can use and what changes they can make to the PC.In Windows 10, you can allow family members to sign in to the PC by adding them as a child or adult account linked with your Microsoft family (aka: Family Safety). Family member accounts will use their Microsoft account, and can be either a standard user or administrator.
In Windows 10, you can also allow people (other users) who are not part of your family to sign in to the PC with their own accounts by adding them as a local account or Microsoft account. This won't add them to your family. Other users can be either a standard user or administrator.
A user profile is a collection of settings that make the computer look and work the way you want it to for a user account. It contains the account's settings for desktop backgrounds, screen savers, pointer preferences, sound settings, and other features. User profiles ensure that your personal preferences are used whenever you sign in to Windows. A user profile is different from a user account, which you use to sign in to Windows. Each user account has at least one user profile associated with it.
When you add a new user account, the user profile of the account is not created until the first time the user signs in to Windows with their user account.
This tutorial will show you different ways on how to add an account for a family member or other users to the PC in Windows 10.
You must be signed in as an administrator to be able to add a user.
Note
Changes in Microsoft familyA new home for family
Family Safety is now part of account.microsoft.com, which is the single place to manage everything connected to your account. To manage your family and kids’ settings, go to account.microsoft.com. Right now some of the settings pages still live on the old site—some things will look the same, and some will look different—but over the next few months, everything will be updated and moved to account.microsoft.com.
Changes to linked accounts
If you’ve linked your kids’ Family Safety accounts, you’ll see that each of them are listed individually and that you now have to manage their settings separately for each device. We know this may be painful for some of you, but we’re doing this to make way for a simpler, better experience: roaming your child’s settings with their Microsoft account. We appreciate your patience as we make these changes. A few other notes:
If devices show up on your list that you no longer use, you can select “Remove” to get rid of them.
You’ll get a separate activity report email for each device.
Adult account
Added adults can manage family settings online, and manage and monitor child accounts to help kids stay safe.
Child account
A child account is monitored and managed by adults using Microsoft family for activity reporting, web filtering, time limits, app restrictions, game restrictions, phone downloads, and requests by child.
Local account versus Microsoft account
Local account
A local account is a user name and password that you use to sign in to only a single Windows PC. This is the same type of user account that was used in Vista and Windows 7.
You have to create a user name and account for each PC you use.
While not recommended, you can remove the password if you like.
You'll need a Microsoft account to download apps from the Store, but you can set it up later.
Your settings won't be synced across the PCs that you use.
Microsoft account
A Microsoft account is an email address and password that you can use to sign in to Microsoft services and all Windows 8/10 PCs and devices.
Some benefits:
Free.
Password cannot be removed since it is required, but you can change the password.
Access, save, share, and sync all of your documents, music, photos, and videos from OneDrive (aka: the cloud) on all PCs and devices that you sign in with the same Microsoft account.
Download, install, and restore apps from the Windows Store.
Get your online content in Microsoft apps automatically.
Sync your personal settings across all PCs and devices that you sign in to with the same Microsoft account.
Two-step verification to verify your identity whenever you sign in to your Microsoft account.
You can set limits for how and when your child uses their Microsoft account. Monitoring their activity so you teach them online safety skills.
Jot down a note in OneNote. Next time you sign in to a device (doesn’t even have to be the same one) you'll be right back to where you left off, no matter where you were, or the device used last time.
Your Microsoft account keeps track of your Xbox Music Pass collection and playlists, syncing across your tablet, PC, phone, and your Xbox console.
Use your Windows Phone as a controller for your Xbox console when you're signed in with the same Microsoft account.

Microsoft is struggling to finalize work on Windows 10 this week, and the company is now planning to release a new build for Windows insiders that would let them try out the latest improvements it made to the operating system before the big launch on July 29.
Microsoft’s Brandon LeBlanc has confirmed in a post on the official Windows blog that a new Windows 10 build is coming for insiders this week, pointing out that it would include the Groove app that’s replacing Xbox Music in the new operating system.
“We’ve kept a keen eye on our existing entertainment fans to make sure the experiences which they enjoy and subscribe to today, will continue without any interruptions. Here’s a quick overview of the new features you’ll find with both apps in the build coming to Windows Insiders this week,” he writes.
RTM candidate?
Now the biggest question among Windows insiders is whether the upcoming build could be an RTM candidate or not. Some people say it will, but Microsoft is yet to confirm such information, adding that the new version will become available for fast ring users first, thus suggesting that a release to slow ring users is possible if no major bug is found.
Windows 10 build 10176 is believed to be the first Windows 10 RTM candidate, but again, it’s not yet clear whether this particular build could be released to insiders this week or not.
Sources say that RTM is planned for July 9, so we’re only two days away from the sign-off date of the new operating system. If the new insider build arrives on Thursday, this could indeed be an RTM release candidate that would receive the final tweaks on July 29, when Microsoft is formally rolling out the new Windows 10.
Windows insiders will be the first to get Windows 10 on July 29, with everyone else to get it in waves shortly after that, depending on the number of compatibility issues discovered on their computers.
