Add users to Windows 10 Home

Hello Experts

I have a client who want s to add another account to her PC. It has Windows 10 Home. Because of that I can;t use the snap-in, but Control Panel only points to doing it in Settings, which open the snap-in.

So how does one actually add users in 10 Home?

Thanks

Last time I tried it in Win 10 Home, it was the same as in Pro. Settings, Accounts, Email & accounts, Add an account gets you started.

Well, I said I'd assign points but it's not really clear h ow to do this.

I'll send the info to a moderator and get some help.
