Local Users and Groups Management on Windows 7 Home?
The Local Users and Groups Manager doesn't like running on the Home versions of Windows...
Is there an alternative program which can provide the same amount of flexibility for editing users/groups?
(Control UserPasswords2
doesn't have nearly as much flexibility, so that doesn't count.)
You can make a lot of these changes using the net
command line tool. It's annoying an inelegant, but it works.
net user
can be used to set things like password expiration, add a comment to the user, change display name, modify when the user can log in, whether they can change their password, if the account ever expires, and whether it is enabled.
net localgroup
can modify groups and their members.
For full documentation, see net user documentation and net localgroup documentation.
