Local Machine:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts
Create a new key 'UserList', under it create a REG_DWORD value with the name of your new user and a value of 0
or use Powershell:
You may have to reboot, but the new user should not show up on the logon screen. I've never used any home editions, so I don't know how they behave.
I don't recommend to activate the disabled administrator account, there is no UAC for it.
