Windows 11 is the latest version of Windows 10. Microsoft has been putting a lot of effort into improving its OS and adding new features to the platform, while trying to fix some of the issues that have arisen since Windows 10’s release.

Compare to previous versions, Windows 11 is much faster and more efficient. It also comes with a new feature called “Dynamic Lock”. It automatically locks your computer when you leave it. This feature utilizes Bluetooth connection if you have a paired device close by.

Microsoft has made it possible for Windows users to create an administrator account without a password. The new feature is called the Administrator Account, and it's designed to help home users.

This feature was released as part of the latest version of Windows 10 , which means that you can access it by updating your operating system.

In a previous post, we already showed you how to activate or enable the hidden administrator account in Windows 11. So far so good, but once said account is activated, you will continue to be in the same Windows 11 user account from which you perform the operation. This happens because when we activate the hidden administrator, our account does NOT become the hidden administrator account, but the operating system automatically adds a new user account to Windows 11 with the name Administrator which has the highest privileges.

Only activate the administration user accounts to make the specific changes desired and that after making them, you hide it again. This account is the one with the most privileges and the highest level of access to your computer, so if someone has access to it, they will have full control over the Windows 11 system on your computer.
