User Groups
As an administrator, you can restrict a user’s access to your computer by
changing that user’s group to a restricted user group.
A user who is part of the restricted user group can operate the computer and
save documents, but cannot install programs or change system settings.
EXAMPLE:
If more than one person in your office uses the same
computer, administrator rights allow you to ensure that security and
other computer settings remain the same and that confidential data is
not accessed.
EXAMPLE:
If several family members, including children, share a home
computer, you can, as administrator, limit the information your
children have access to and the programs they can install.
FOR MORE INFORMATION:
To learn more about administrator rights, see

Support.
EXAMPLE:
If more than one person in your office shares a computer,
each user can be assigned her own account with user permissions.
