This example is to add a LogMeIn Access Code as a remote access password option; It can also be used to add any Windows profile name such as “Administrator” or "First Name LastName". 

Many technicians use this option to create the LogMeInRemoteUser for quicker One2Many task deployment and execution.

Script to add a Windows Profile: 

net user LogMeInRemoteUser Test1234 /ADD  

net localgroup administrators LogMeInRemoteUser /add  

Test1234 is a password example, and it must be 8 characters long. You can enter whatever password you want, thus creating the "Access Code".
