Create an Account
When Bazzite asks you to create a user account, this will be the account used to sign in to the computer each day. Take a moment to fill in the details carefully so the computer is set up the way you want.
1Enter your name and username
In the account setup screen, enter the Name you want shown on the computer, then choose a User Name. The user name is used by the system in the background, so it is best to keep it simple and easy to remember.
A short user name using lowercase letters is usually best. For example, if the name is Mary Jones, a user name like mary or maryjones works well.
2Choose the account type
Most people will want an Administrator account so they can install software and change settings when needed. If the computer is for children, it is usually safer to choose a Standard account. This helps stop them from making harmful changes to the PC.
3Pick and confirm your password
Enter a password you can remember, then type it again in the confirmation box if asked. This password will be needed when you sign in and when making important changes to the computer.
- Choose a password you will remember
- Type it carefully both times
- Keep it private and store it somewhere safe if needed
