Comment on Microsoft really wants Local accounts gone after it erases its guide on how to create them
johannes@lemmy.jhjacobs.nl 2 months agoYes, you can. But a lot of Windows users dont even know what powershell is.
And personally i think you shouldnt have to jump through hoops for what i consider basic functionality. They also make it near impossible to install Windows 11 new without having to resort to all kind of tricks to create a local account. Its a shitshow.
In my humble opinion :)

Isn’t the point of an OS so that users don’t have to use cmd prompt? That’s why we aren’t using DOS anymore.

Thats because a lot of users dont really want to use Windows, or the computer in general. They use it, because they have to.
For the same reason, i would never know what to do when my car breaks down. Sure i can look under the hood and do this and that. But its not my area of expertise, and its not something im interested in.
I’m a sysadmin, i know almost everything about powershell and then some. That doesnt mean my users do though. For thrm, a computer is a magical black box thats supposed to “just work” by clicking here and there.
