Hi Marie Philips,

For set up a password go to Control Panel > Click on User accounts and create a ID and Password. Make sure that it's has the Administrator rights.

If another person want to share the computer with you then you can create more than one accounts. You can give him/her user administrator right or limited rights.

How to set some password pc?

Hello,

Setting a password in your computer is very important to make sure all your files are not accessible to other people who might use or is using your computer.

To set a password:

• Click on Start or Window Icon on the lower left part of your desktop.
• Go to Control Panel.
• Click on User Accounts.
• Click User Accounts Link.
• Then click Create a password for your account link. (You need to type your password twice to make sure that you typed the new password correctly.)

And lastly you also need to create a password hint. (Just in case you forgot your password.)

I hope this helps.

Dear Marrie

 

Following are some steps to create password

1. Click on Start and then Control Panel.

2. Click on the User Accounts and Family Safety link.

3. Click on the User Accounts link.

4. In the Make changes to your user account area of the User Accounts window, click the Create a password for your account link.

5. In the first two text boxes, enter the password you would like to start using.

6. In the final text box, you're asked to Type a password hint.

   This step is optional but I highly recommend that you use it. If you try logging in to Windows 7 but enter the wrong password, this hint will pop up, hopefully jogging your memory.

7. Click the Create password button to confirm your new password.

8. You can now close the User Accounts window.

9. This is your windows 7 password and you must remember this for future login

Thanks
