      Looks like it should work via lusermgr.msc. I'm on 1803 Pro.

        This is Windows 10 Home. It might not work.

          AFAIK lusermgr.msc is in Home as well. Worth a shot 🙂

              That is annoying.

                  Apparently, in an incredibly intuitive way, you can bypass this by not setting a password on the account when you're creating it. Then you go back and set the password after the account has been fully created.

                        Creating a new account for a pc in Windows 10 and it makes you do security questions. Is there a way to bypass?

                        Yes, it happens on Windows 1803 and up and only on local accounts. With microsoft accounts it is the usual.
