Is it possible to make a hidden account like the "administrator" account which is already on your computer, and have 2 hidden accounts?

Any account on your PC that doesn't show up on the welcome screen is considered "hidden" Also, the Admin account is only accessable from Safe-Mode.

Why do you want to make a hidden account anyway?

Yes it is possible.

Create the user account make sure it is an Admin account.

Open Registry Editor.

In Registry Editor, navigate to the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList

Create the following entry:

Username: REG_DWORD

(Where Username is the username of the user you want to hide from the Welcome Screen).

Assign a value of 0.

Close Registry Editor.

Reboot.


To access this account you need to press CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at the welcome screen and it will give you the Windows 2000 style account. Use this to enter the username and password to login.

Here's how to create a hidden user account.

Start > Run > Regedit
Browse to Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\
Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList
Right click > New > REG_DWORD > Put the 'Name' what you want to User Account to be called.
Setting for Value Data: [0 = Account is Hidden / 1 = Enabled]
Exit Registry and Reboot

Also note that this will be shown in the user accounts so it is hidden from the account login screen but not from the account mangemnt hing
