Adding Guest account to W10

[learninmypc]

I just followed this link https://www.windowscentral.com/how-create-guest-account-windows-10 to set up an account so a friend can use my W10 laptop but after rebooting, it does not show up. Since I might of messed up, I went into the User account & delete it since there was nothing to save. How do I do it??

Yes it does but just setup a secondary account.
Get pretty knowledgeable with windows admin settings.

I have an 8.1 HP I fixed up for him. Once he gets his own pc, I'll remove it & set up his new one.

Make sure you charge him a os setup fee of 15.00 or 35.00 depending on his needs he asks for.
Yes free is good every once and awhile.
However if you are putting in man hours with good quality work for nothing every time its time to ask for a payment.

Think it over and good luck.
