Create NON admin windows user Microsoft account
- Oct 06, 2023
Hi KenTay,
To create a non-admin Windows user Microsoft account, you can use the following workaround:
- Create a new local user account without administrator privileges.
- Remove the Microsoft account from the local Administrators group.
- Add the Microsoft account to the local Users group.
Windows 11 Pro does not allow you to create a non-admin Microsoft account directly from the Settings app. However, you can use the workaround above to create a non-admin local user account and then add the Microsoft account to the local Users group.
