creating local user account
Trying to create local admin user accounts on windows 10 pcs. Have been trying to run the bat script referenced in previous posts.
@echo off
net user | find /i "admin" || net user admin Password /add
wmic useraccount where "name=admin" set passwordexpires=TRUE
net localgroup Administrators admin /add
exit
I have tried running this with the local system account as an online shell script and online Kscript. According to the script log, it will succeed but the account is never created. Any ideas?

All of your Windows computers will have the "Administrator" account, so the first line of your script will never create an account (it contains the string "admin").
The script log shows it completed because the client launched the script which exits with a code of 0 (because of your last line), which means it was successful.

Thanks, some days you feel dumb. I forgot that find is a string search. - KJessie 4 years ago

If you didn't include the /i the command would also have worked, by the way. - chucksteel 4 years ago
