First of all click/touch on the "Start Menu" icon or press the Windows key in the keyboard. Start typing "Computer Management". Now click on the "Computer Management" item in the search result. See the image below





 This will open a window as shown below.

 

Expand the item named "" by clicking on the arrow on the left side of the item. Now select the sub item "Users". The middle pane will list all the users as shown below. As you can see the "Guest" account will have a black downward arrow. This shows the account is disabled.
 
 

 Double clicking the "Guest" item will bring a window similar to the one shown below. Untick the check box labeled "Account is disabled". Click "Apply" and then click "OK".
 
 

 Now as you can see the "Guest" account is enabled. Be sure to use a complex password for all user accounts.
