Hello all, is there any way to make a user that is a copy of the main users but without the permission to install and uninstall..

the kids want to play with the pc but thay keep messing with things (unknowingly) but kids press stuff on the keyboard and it doesn’t take much to mess things up.

Create them as a User rather than an Administrator - if they try and (un)install anything, the computer will request the Admin to log in
It will also make it easier to protect areas of the disk from their prying eyes

but would there user be a copy of the main one so I don’t have to reinstall games and stuff

i managed to get this set up and working how i wanted.

when say the kids have been on and they turn off the pc the next time its turned on it logs them in.
is there a way to make the PC go to log-in/log-on screen every time its booted.

Setting passwords for each user profile would do this.

If I didn’t have to do that it would be best but I have have to I could do a silly pin like 1234

Or, you could try teaching the kids to log out before shutting down, that may present you with the login screen at next boot.

i just set a 1234 password was the easiest thing to do
