In this tutorial I will show you how to create a new user, or profile, in Windows 7. There are a lot of families and businesses that cannot afford more then one computer. So when multiple people have to use that one computer things can get messing. These other people will usually download software, change the settings or infect the computer with some virus or spyware and as a result you will be affected. The best solution to this problem is to create a separate account for each person so they can customize their account the way they want and you can even control the amount access a user has to the computer. Creating a user is easy with Windows 7 and the benefits are endless. Lets get started.

An Administrator will have full access, while a Standard user will not be able to make system changes. Once you have selected the type of user press the Create Account button.
