Solution

Sure, here are the steps to create a new user using the net user command in Windows 10:

  1. Press the Windows key + X together on your keyboard. This will open a menu in the lower-left corner of your screen.

  2. From this menu, select "Command Prompt (Admin)" or "Windows PowerShell (Admin)" to open the command prompt with administrative privileges.

  3. In the command prompt, type the following command: net user /add [username] [password] and press Enter. Replace [username] and [password] with the username and password you want to create. For example, if you want to create a user named "John" with the password "123456", you would type: net user /add John 123456

  4. After pressing Enter, you should see a message saying "The command completed successfully", which means the user account has been created.

  5. If you want this new user to have administrative privileges, you can add them to the administrators group by typing the following command: net localgroup administrators [username] /add and press Enter. Replace [username] with the username you just created. For example: net localgroup administrators John /add

  6. Close the command prompt.

Remember, you need to have administrative privileges to perform these actions.
