I am using Windows 11 Pro Version 25H2, and I am the only user on my home computer. When I boot up, I go straight into Windows. I am the admin, and there is no other account on the computer.I want to add a new user account (for myself) for daily use, both for safety and so I don't mess things up.

1. If I add a new account, will all my software work on my second account, or will I have to reinstall all my programs on it?
2. When I boot up my computer, do I have to choose which account I want to use? I do not use a password on my computer, and I have never had an account other than admin.

0. I also make an image backup after every 2 Microsoft updates or every 2 to 3 months.
