To add users from the command prompt (CMD) in Windows, you can use the "net user" command. Here are the steps: 1. Open the command prompt as an administrator. You can do this by searching for "cmd" in the Start menu, right-clicking on "Command Prompt," and selecting "Run as administrator." 2. Type the following command to add a new user: ``` net user [username] [password] /add ``` Replace "[username]" with the desired username for the new user and "[password]" with the desired password. 3. If you want to require the new user to change their password at their first login, type the following command: ``` net user [username] /passwordchg:yes ``` 4. If you want to add the new user to a specific group, type the following command: ``` net localgroup [groupname] [username] /add ``` Replace "[groupname]" with the name of the group you want to add the user to. 5. To verify that the new user has been added, type the following command: ``` net user ``` This will display a list of all the users on the computer, including the new user you just added. That's it! You've successfully added a new user from the command prompt.
