Title: Trick to create Hidden Administrator User Account in Windows 10
Post by: javajolt on July 28, 2015, 03:27:41 PM
You might have observed that, during Windows 10 installation set up, when you complete installation Windows 10 creates two additional user accounts which are hidden by default. One is a guest account which is very limited and the other is administrator account. The difference between the created user account and the built in user account is that the built-in account is an elevated account (administrator) and will not give UAC prompts.

Windows automatically generates this elevated hidden Super Administrator account which remains hidden by default owing to security reasons. The built-in Administrator account is usually used to troubleshoot Windows and therefore should only be used during troubleshooting. Unlike the normal Administrator account, this hidden by default or built-in Administrator account runs all programs and tools with admin rights by default.

Today, I will show you a trick that will let you create a new hidden administrator user account on your Windows PC. It should work on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, as well as Windows 7 systems.

Create Hidden Administrator User Account in Windows

Copy-paste the following text in Notepad:

Quote
@echo off
net user hidden password stupid trick /add n
et local group Administrators Windows Club /add

Please note that you have to enter the password and name of the account, of your choice.

When done, save this file as hidden.bat.

Thereafter, open the saved file by right-clicking on it and choosing the option ‘Run as administrator’.

Instantly a command prompt window should appear on your computer screen and your hidden administrator account will be created.

You will find a new hidden account with complete administrator access is created in your Windows 10.
