If you use a common computer (at school, at the library, at work) or your computer have access to other people (friends, family), you are definitely disturbed (most likely) by Lack of privacy. One of the solutions is the use of a different user for login (you have the opportunity to Blocked access other users at installed applications by you or to personal data), and of course adding a passwords for identification. But it is not hard to praise that a user parolat The curiosity of the others will arouse and there will be several attempts to "break" the respective account. But what if you created a hidden user?
1. A very simple Tweak de registers can allow you to create an user ascuns in Windows Vista, so that it is not listed on the screen of Welcome, along with the other existing users. Follow the steps below:
- open the register editor (Registry Editor) tastand regedit in Run (in Start Menu)
- Follow the way HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsNTCurrentVersionWinlogon SpecialAccountsUserList (If you don't find keys SpecialAccounts and UserList, create them)
- In the right panel create a New entry, DWORD, and give him the name of the user you want to hide (in this case STH) then give double-click on this (or right-click->Modify) and change its value in 0.
- Close the regedit and give restart to the PC so that the modification has an effect.
To log in to use the hidden user, use Ctrl+alt+del to open Windows Logon, then typ the user and password.
2. If you are not used to using registers, there is another way to create a hidden user for you.
- taste lusrmgr.msc in Searchthe from Start Menu And give Enter
- in Local Users and Groups (window that will open) Click on Users (left side)
- Click-right on the user you want to hide and select Properties
- in tab-ul General, tick the box next Account is disabled, click Apply si OK.
Note: These methods also work for Windows XP and Windows 7. The hidden user will be visible in C: Documents (or users) and in Local Users and Groups. Those who will follow the method with editing registers to hide a Windows user recommend them to first make a back-up to avoid any unpleasant consequences.
