I'm setting up a new PC and handing over my laptop to my dad. I'm creating a fresh user account so he can use whatever he wants without seeing my files or apps. However, when trying to log in as his account, the system says an error occurs. I need a way to make a new account that works smoothly and keeps his account completely private, removing all of my personal stuff.
The best approach is to restore or reinstall it. Unless all software is already on your account, other users will also see it. Another concern is that the HP version of Windows 7 offers very limited user account options. If you're handing over the PC for regular use, you might want to set up another administrator account as well. Administrator accounts can view everything installed and accessed. Regular users usually need to install additional programs. The error message suggests your current account lacks full administrative rights.
