    Wow, I'm running as admin in my two Win10 PCs and didn't know it!


    After re-reading the excerpt above from your post, I have a question:

    Is giving family members their own login ID different from creating a standard user account for each person? If so, please provide a link so I can study up on this.

    Thanks.

    Thanks.
