    When creating another account, its corrupted

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are facing issues creating a new user account. I’ll certainly help you with the issue.



    However, please let us know:



    • When you say, “When creating another account, its corrupted” is the new user account getting corrupted?
    • When you say, “It also doesn’t give me the settings when you create an account” which settings are you looking for?
    • How are you creating a new user account?
    • What is the exact issue that you are facing on the new user account?
    • Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on the computer?


    I would suggest you to try enabling hidden admin account and then create a new user account and check.



    Refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Type command prompt in the search bar on the
      Taskbar.
    2. Right click on the command prompt icon and select
      Run as administrator.
    3. Type in the following commands one by one and hit
      Enter
      :

      net user administrator /active:yes
    4. After enabling the hidden admin, refer the steps in the article

      Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10
      .


    Note: Make sure to disable hidden admin by using the command
    net user administrator /active:no after performing the troubleshooting steps.



    Please reply with more information on the issue to help you further.



    Regards,

    Not able to create another user

    How do I remove an unwanted user created by Windows

    Hi ssilvermuk,

    My name is Lee. As for how it was created, I have no idea, this is strange.

    To delete, login to your true account and try:

    • Go to Settings > Accounts > Family and Other user > This user account should be listed under Other users

    If it's not listed there, try:

    • Search Control Panel using Cortana and select the Control Panel App

    • Click User Accounts

    • Click remove user Accounts

    • The impostor account should be listed there and you should be able to delete it

    If my suggestion did not solve the issue, please reply back so we can try other step.

    Kind Regards,

    < / L e e >
