Everything you need to know about guest account in Windows 10

About guest account

If strangers use your computer quite often (checking their mail, using installed programs, etc.), you do not need to allow them to use your personal account. Besides, creating a special account for each guest is also expensive for you. To protect your data and be sure that unauthorized users will not harm your computer, you can create a guest account. This account has limited access for logged-in users. That is, the user cannot install software or change system settings.

Unfortunately, current versions of Windows no longer have this feature. But you can still create a guest account. You just need to know how to do it correctly. This will be discussed below.

Enter guest account

The Dear Guest user is now displayed in the user list in the lower-left corner of the login screen, and your guests can simply select the Visitor user and click Login. They will be able to use the basic functions, such as launching a browser for viewing Web pages, launch programs installed, etc.

At the same time, you do not even need to leave your account to allow guests to enter the visitor account.

You can simply select a visitor account from the Start menu to log into that account for your guest.

If the screen is locked, the guest can select the visitor's account from the login screen and log in smoothly.

When a guest tries to log into your account, they will be prompted to enter your password to log in.

If you no longer need the guest account, you can delete it.

• 1. Download and install DiskInternals Partition Recovery.

• 2. The Recovery Wizard will start automatically and guide you through all the steps to recover files from the disk. You will be prompted to select basic options for extracting data, such as the file system (it will be detected automatically - you just need to check it) and the way to open the disk (quick scan, full scan, reader).

• 3. The next step is the scanning process. This will take some time, depending on the size of the selected drive. Wait for the process to complete.

• 4. Preview and restore files from the selected drive. Browse all the files you are interested in or some of the files found by right-clicking on one of them. Select "Preview in new window" and, yes, this feature is free too.

• 5. Save your data. To save the recovered files from the drive of your choice, you just need to buy a license and enter the license key. It is best to save the files to a different storage device to prevent overwriting the saved data.
