    Use MDT to create admin account


    How do I create a new administrator account with no password and auto-logon on first boot, using customsettings.ini or bootstrap.ini ? I don't want to use the unattend.xml, I tried task sequence, but It won't boot into it even when disabling or enabling the built-in Administrator account. This is not for server use, so I do not have a domain/group etc.

    :)

    Remove account

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

    Creating an admin account/ Renaming my PC??

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    Ideally, if you are using a Local account on the computer and if it’s the only account, it will be an admin account. To check if the account is an admin account, please refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows key + R, to open
      Run
      dialog box.
    2. Type netplwiz and click on
      OK
      .
    3. You will find all the user accounts on the computer and if you see Administrator beside your account, the account is an admin account.


    If you want to change the name of the user account that you are using, you need to create a new user account on the computer. Please follow the steps mentioned in the article

    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10
    . Once you create a new user account, follow the steps from the section
    Copy files to the new user profile in the article
    Fix a corrupted user profile
    to move the data from the old account to the new account.



    Note: The above mentioned article is for Windows 7. However, holds good for Windows 10.



    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
