Activate a User Account
Updated: March 30, 2011
Applies To: Windows Home Server 2011
When you activate a user account, the assigned user can log on to the network and access network resources to which the account has permission, such as shared folders and the Remote Access Web site.
Note
You can only activate a user account that is deactivated. You cannot activate a user account once you remove it from the server.
To activate a user account
Open the Windows Home Server 2011 Dashboard.
On the main navigation bar, click Users.
In the list view, select the user account that you want to activate.
In the <User Account> Tasks pane, click Activate the user account.
In the pop-up window, click Yes to confirm your action.
Note
After you activate a user account, the status for the account displays Active. The user account regains the same access rights that were assigned prior to account deactivation.
