Next type “ net user Prefferedusername/active:yes” and press enter.

A space is needed before the slash on this command, right? And no space before net.

You are correct I will update my instructions. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

I don't know if this is the case, but I've found that often Windows commands see the space as optional. It's weird, but generally works.

In this case the space before net won't matter but it does make it more consistent. The space before the "/" however will matter.
