How to set a password for a user account

If you are the type of person that loves your privacy and likes to make sure your personal stuff is safe, putting a password on your account will ensure that.  To do this click start and go to user accounts and family safety.  Next click on user accounts and all the account you have made on that computer (if it is shared by you and family).  Select the account that you are trying to put a password on and click the change the password button.  Keep in mind that when creating a password, never use stuff that people can figure out easily such as your date of birth, your phone number and so forth.  You password should be a mixture of numbers and letters so that way it is much harder to figure out.  Once you have come up with a password type it in the box and click save.  After applying your password to that account, every time you want to use that account you need to use the password.  Make sure that you write down and store your password in a safe place that only you know where it is at in case you forget it.
