Windows 10 Local Users And Groups Missing
- Local Users And Groups Missing In Windows 10
- Local Users And Groups Windows 7
- User Account Properties Windows 10
The Local Users and Groups Manager doesn't like running on the Home versions of Windows..
Is there an alternative program which can provide the same amount of flexibility for editing users/groups?
(Control UserPasswords2
doesn't have nearly as much flexibility, so that doesn't count.)
Local Users and Groups issue on Windows 10 I just upgraded my Windows 10 Home to Pro, and when I open Local user and groups settings by opening 'lusrmgr.msc', it says it cannot be used in this version of Windows 10. In this method, you can enable administrator account in Windows 10 using Local User and Groups section of your machine. This is an in-built tool of Microsoft Windows. To open Local User and Groups on your Windows 10, press Win + R, write down lusrmgr.msc and hit enter.

You can make a lot of these changes using the net
Are you ready to rpg 3. command line tool. It's annoying an inelegant, but it works.
net user
can be used to set things like password expiration, add a comment to the user, change display name, modify when the user can log in, whether they can change their password, if the account ever expires, and whether it is enabled.
net localgroup
can modify groups and their members.
For full documentation, see net user documentation and net localgroup documentation.

♦nhinkleThe Homes editions do not have this feature. They only support two types of users. You'll need the professional edition or above.
Because you can't modify objects' security permissions in the home editions, user groups won't be useful anyways.

I'm using Windows 10 Home.
While troubleshooting some issue with WinRM, I figured out 'Local Users and Groups' item is missing in my System Tools.

Windows 10 Home Edition does not have Local Users and Groups option so that is the reason you aren't able to see that in Computer Management.
You can use User Accounts by pressing Window
+R
, typing netplwiz
and pressing OK as described here.
