I'm trying to figure out a way to create an account on Windows 10 that can provide a login from remote users (I.E. net use \\Hostname\SharedFilder /User:"Username" Password) that does not have the following:

The Ability to Log in from the lock screen
It's own folder in C:\Users\

I was messing around with the command net user /Add but creating a user this way did have the two things I don't want. Disabling the account with net user Username /Active:No gets rid of the problems above, but it also blocks it from being logged in.

Allow only remote authentication for that account in GPEDIT. – Akina Oct 02 '18 at 13:21

I’ll try and look into it, it’s a little beyond me. All I’m using are shared folders for a LAN network. Lol – Mark Deven Oct 02 '18 at 13:36
All I’m using are shared folders for a LAN network If so you must forbid local and remote logon but allow network authentication. – Akina Oct 02 '18 at 16:22
