Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

For three users to use a laptop computer without being able to access each other's data, you must configure three local user accounts.
Key Takeaway: You can create separate accounts for each person that will be using the computer. This allows each user to have their own document folders and settings such as wallpaper, Start menu, visual style, and so forth. You can create and configure user accounts with the User Accounts tool in the Control Panel. To open the User Accounts tool, open Control Panel from the Start menu, and then double click User Accounts. Click Create a new account in the Pick a task list box, type the name that you want to use for the account, and then click Next. Select the desired account type, and then click Create Account.
