• 8.  Setting up assigned access in Windows 10 (Fall Creators Update)
  3m 37s
  While Windows 10 doesn't offer guest accounts, you can use Assigned Access to limit a user's access to a specific program. This is useful for children or guest users because it ensures that they'll only have access to the program that you assign to them. You can set up assigned access by activating the setting, choosing an existing user account to apply the restricted access to, and restarting your device so that the changes will take effect. The result from the perspective of the user is a simple kiosk-style device with a sign-in window that redirects them to the application that you've made available. FREE ACCESS
