If You are the Only User on Your Windows XP Computer, Do You Think One User Account Is Enough?
I am going to assume that you are running windows xp on your machine, and you are the only user on this machine. That is right, no one else uses your computer except you. Let me ask you a question:How many user accounts should you have onyour computer? You probably guessing, one user account isthe answer, since you are the only user on yourcomputer. This is what most people willanswer, one, just like you thought. Here is the problem, you can run your your machine with only one user account. But, it is not a goodpractice. The best practice is to have two accounts,even if you are the only user on your computer. Here is why:when you install windows xp, a useraccount is created for you, called the admin account.The admin account has the highest privilege on thecomputer. That is installing new programs, deleting, adding user accounts, and all the rest of the administrative services. In other words, you are the most effectiveuser on this computer. In order to prevent unwanted install or uninstallof programs unintentionally, you must create anotheruser account beside the admin account. When you createanother user account beside the admin account, so you prevent unwanted install or uninstall. This is because the second account created willnot have the authority of the admin on the computer. In summary, you should have two account users on yourcomputer, the admin, and another account you create.You always login and do work using the account createdother than the admin account. The only time you should login using the admin status,is when installing a program, or doing other tasksthat can only be done by the admin.
