# Windows Configurations-How To

## How do I move a user or group from one local group to another?

### Description

This document provides you with steps required to move a user or group from one local group to another. In a computer there are many groups. The members of each group have a different level of access. For example, the members of an Administrators group have complete and unrestricted access to a computer or a domain whereas the members of a Remote Endpoint Central Users group have permission to logon remotely.

**Note**: You can move users from both local groups and domain groups to a local group. You can also move local users from a local group to a domain group or from one local group to another.

### Steps

Let us assume that you have a user called dcadmin in the local group called Administrators. You want to move this user from the Administrators group to another local group called Remote Users. To move the user from the Administrators group to the Remote Desktop Users group, follow the steps given below:

1. Click the **Configurations** tab
2. In the **Add Configurations** section, click **Configuration**
3. In the **Computer Configurations** section, select **Group Management**
4. Enter a name and description for the configuration
5. Select **Modify Group**
6. Enter the following information:
   - Name of the group: In this case enter Administrators
   - Description of the group
7. In the **Remove Member** list, select **Local User**
