Windows uses the default user profile as a template to assign a profile to each new user. By customizing the default user profile, you can configure settings for all user accounts that are created on the computer.


Found via a web search, I've never used it nor heard of it until now.

You may also try to set up a new account and make it administrator, and afterwards change your current admin account to standard. Go to Control Panel>User Accounts>Change Account type. You will still need to apply settings of choice to the new admin account, but it won't really matter much since you'll mainly use SUA.
