2. In the settings window, click on the "Accounts" category.
3. In the side navigation bar, select the "Family & other users" option.
4. On the "Family & other users" tab, select the user account for which you want to change privileges.

6. On the next screen, you will be given several options for the account type. If you want to give the user administrative rights, select the "Administrator" or "Team Leader" option. If you want to give limited rights, select the "Limited" option.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete changing user privileges.
What are the differences between administrator and limited user rights in Windows 11?
1. Administrator:
- A user with administrator rights has full control over the system and can make changes to all settings and applications.
- Has access to all files and folders on the system, including system files and files owned by other users.
- Can install and uninstall applications, create and delete user accounts, and perform various system management actions.
2. Limited user (Standard User):
- The user with limited rights has limited access and control over the system.
- Cannot make changes to important system settings or install new applications that require administrator privileges.
- Has limited access to files and folders owned by other users and to system files.
- Can run applications and use the system normally, but with limited configuration and control capabilities.
In general, an administrator has full control and access to all system functions and settings, while a limited user has limited privileges and access to specific functions. A limited user is typically used for day-to-day tasks, while an administrator is used for executive tasks that require elevated privileges and control of the system.
It's worth noting that changing user privileges requires administrative rights, so you'll need to be logged in as an administrator or have the administrator password to make these changes.
