Windows 10: Windows 10 Home screen administrator removial so it can be accessed when needed .

I have a bunch of laptops that require the admin login to be removed from the login screen but be available if needed . From what I've read so far this option id only in pro version. I added the admin login using net user but if I disable it using net user I can't get back in. It says I don't have rights to change when going to power shell admin on the other login ( which is setup as an admin account ). If I got to registry the special accounts are not listed, and again if I try to change it, it says no rights.

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
