Windows 10 comes set up with some special accounts called built-in accounts.

You can check the built-in account by launching the system management tool "Computer Management" and expanding "Local Users and Groups" to point to the user.

System accounts used by Windows OS such as SYSTEM, LOCAL SERVICE, NETWORK SERVICE, etc. recorded in the user of the event log are not displayed.

And most built-in accounts are deactivated and can't be used until you activate them.

Start button: Right-click menu> Computer Management

One of the built-in accounts, Administrator, is called the administrator account, and is the account used when changing the system of the Windows OS.

Since it is disabled by default, enable it using Computer Management when using it.

The sign-in screen when Administrator is displayed is as shown in the first image.

Hide Administrator

When Administrator is enabled, "Administrator" will be displayed at the bottom left of the sign-in screen.

I didn't want to display the Administrator on the sign-in screen (Welcome screen), but I found an effective method, so I will share it.

Local users and groups

[Accounts registered to local users and groups]

• Administrator
• DefaultAccount
• Guest
• HomeGroupUser $
• WDAGUtilityAccount

WDAGUtilityAccount is the account created when setting up the Windows sandbox.

It is a bad thing that it is disabled except HomeGroupUser $, but it is recommended to disable it when it is not.

Read the related article for steps to set up your Windows sandbox.
