Hi folks,

In this quick post I briefly go over how to enable or disable users in Windows 10.

1. Launch cmd as an adminstrator
2. List all users by running the following command in cmd:

   net user
   

3. Once you find the user you want to disable, run the following command:

   net user theusername /active:no
   

4. To enable a user, run the following command:

   net user theusername /active:yes

That’s all!

Till next time, happy system administration.
