Granting admin rights to an underage user on Windows 11 Home can be done, but it's important to consider the potential risks and responsibilities. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:
1. Open Settings: Click on the Start menu and select Settings.
2. Go to Accounts: In the Settings window, select Accounts from the sidebar.
3. Select Family & Other Users: Under Accounts, click on Family & other users.
4. Choose the User: Find the user you want to grant admin rights to and click on their name.
5. Change Account Type: Click Change account type and select Administrator from the dropdown menu.
6. Confirm the Change: Click OK to apply the changes.
After completing these steps, the selected user will have administrative rights, allowing them to install applications and make other system changes.
Important Considerations:
Security Risks: Admin rights give full control over the system, which can be risky if the user is not careful.
Monitoring: Regularly check the activities of users with admin rights to ensure they are not making harmful changes.
Strong Passwords: Ensure the account has a strong password to prevent unauthorized access.
When all required apps and setting are installed, you can revert the user back to standard.
