Yeah yeah call me a lib for not having Linux, let me just shit on what I had to work with (I'm being dramatic but still):
Not only is there not an option for making a guest account like on Windows 7, they also forbid you from creating a new local account by the first name "Guest" !! Calling it "Visitor" works but sounds kinda stupid imo. Why do I gotta go through hoops to let people use my laptop without worrying they'll see gay porn or personal journal entries??
Also, you're allowed to make a new user without a microsoft account, but it seems like they intentionally make it seem like you can't at first (it'll ask you for a microsoft account and have it seem like the only option, until you get more options after clicking "I don't have this person's sign in information")
I mean fair, the guest accounts should've still required passwords on windows 7, but disabling having an option for it by default seems dumb
afaik know, a new install of windows 11 just has Guest disabled, you just have to right click and enable. i just checked my work laptop where i am an admin in IT and the Guest profile is in disabled computer management, i dont have to run a command to get it to enable or appear. unless youre on windows 11 home maybe? plus even if it wasnt there, making a new local account is nothing.
Yeah there's no option in computer management, didn't even know there's two different versions of windows 11 but I'm apparently on home
there's always been different versions of Windows, but Home and Pro are probably the two most common. Home doesnt let you join the computer to a work domain, but Pro does. But maybe it doesnt have Guest either which a little odd.
