    working with seperate administrator-account


    I've got a clean install of Windows 10 pro and I'd like to have a separate Administrator-account for security-reasons.
    But when I create a separate Admin-accound and leave the at the time of the installation pre-created account without administrative privileges, I can't see this account on the login-screen. So it seems Windows 10 only shows accounts with belong to the Administrator-group at the login screen.
    Has anyone an idea how to circumvent this?

    Thanks in advance,
    Olli

    EDIT: Sorry, it was my fault. I missed to add the restricted user to the "Users" group.
    Please delete this posting.

    PC Suite - generates APPCRASH each time I try to install

    I am admin. In fact I am the ONLY user on this notebook and I have, therefore, granted myself administrator status - and there is NO seperate Administrator account.

    Hi,

    You won't be able to keep your Work account and personal one seperate when synchronizing. Sure you can create ayour POP3 account and doing so will keep your emails in a seperate mailboix on the device.
