    If your Mac operating system is used by multiple people, it may be appropriate to make a “Guest” user, which is a useful feature for allowing other people to use the macOS temporarily as guest users without adding them as individual users. The user who accesses the Mac as a guest cannot change the user or computer settings, they can create files but these are stored in a temporary folder, and this folder and its contents are deleted when the guest logs out. It is also possible to automatically restrict access to many adult websites. In this guide, you will learn how to create a Guest User on your macOS Ventura and Monterey OS.

    • Open System Settings in the Dock.
    • Alternatively, you can also click on the Apple menu on top and then click on System Settings.
    • Select the item “Users and groups” in the section on the left and (on the right) click on the “i” button to the right of “Guest user…”.
    • At this point, you can select whether or not to activate the guest account, whether or not to limit access to some adult sites, and whether or not to allow guests to connect to shared folders (via the network).
    • To show the list of users at startup (including the Guest) from System Settings go to Users and Groups you need to set the “automatic login” item to “Not active”.

    From the “Users and Groups” window it is possible to click on “Login Options” and decide whether to activate automatic login (the Mac starts up by selecting the user indicated in this step) or show the list of users at startup (including the guest user access).
