Converting administrator to user
I have a computer that just has one account, the main administrator,
as the only user. The computer boots up without asking for a password
or anything. I would like to make this a Limited User account and
retain all the settings and then create a main Administrator account.
How would I go about this and maintain the settings with the current
single user? I also want the Limited User to have to log in each and
every time. Thank you.
