Windows 10: Unhide user account windows 11

I want to unhide an admin user login on windows 11 pro.When I setup windows 11 the user account is administrator.I set up another user with just standard permissions, because I don't want the other user to be able to access all parts of Win 11.If I use group policy editor to hide the administator user, how can I unhide it later?If I login to the standard user, it doesn't give me access to group policy to be able to unhide the admin loginthanks

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown

 

How do i unhide a windows 10 hidden user account

Chris,

If all you did was hide a folder [in File explorer] then all you have to do is unhide that folder. Judging by your description, you have not changed your user account itself i.e. it is a folder that is hidden not the user account.

• Open File explorer,
• in the upper-right, click on the dropdown arrow if necessary so that the ribbon is visible,
• click on the View menu,
• set the checkbox for Hidden items,
• navigate to the folder concerned & clear its hidden property,
• [optionally] clear the checkbox for Hidden items.
