To create a new user, right click on the “Users” folder in the left hand pane and select the “New User” item. A new dialog appears, in which the user account is configured.

The options available are self-explanatory, with the only compulsory items being the username and password/confirm password entries. Clicking the “Create” button creates the user account and adds it to the local accounts database. The “New User” dialog is blanked out and remains on screen to allow further users to be created; click the “Close” button to dismiss it. The CompTIA user is now able to log into the computer.
