How to view all user accounts on Windows 11

To list all Windows 11 accounts, open Settings > Accounts > Other users and confirm the accounts.
Also, on Settings > Accounts > Family, check the Microsoft accounts in your family group (if applicable).
Alternatively, open Command Prompt and view the accounts using the “net user” command. You can also use PowerShell and the Computer Management app.

On Windows 11, checking all the accounts configured on your computer can be useful in many situations. For example, when you want to double-check that a user already has an account on the system or need to know the hidden accounts available on your installation, such as the Administrator account, which is usually turned off by default.

If you need to view all the existing accounts, Windows 11 includes many ways to view this information using the Settings app, Computer Management, Command Prompt, and PowerShell.

In this guide, you will learn four ways to see a listing of every account available on Windows 11.

Check all Windows 11 accounts from Settings
Check all Windows 11 accounts from Computer Management
Check all Windows 11 accounts from Command Prompt
Check all Windows 11 accounts from PowerShell

Check all Windows 11 accounts from Settings

To view the accounts on Windows 11 from the Settings app, use these steps:

Open Settings on Windows 11.
Click on Accounts.
Click on Other people.
Under the “Other users” section, check the accounts available on the computer.

Quick note: This page is limited because it doesn’t show built-in or disabled user accounts, such as the built-in “Administrator” account.
Click on Family from the “Accounts” section.
Check the accounts available through your family group.

Once you complete the steps, you will have an overview of the accounts available on Windows 11. Also, you will notice that the current user account isn’t listed either, but that’s because this information appears on the “Your info” page available in the “Accounts” section.
