Ubuntu – An easy way to add new user

user-management

I have read about the command sudo adduser newuser and sudo passwd -l but if I understood correct I have to grant every thing by terminal. I created easily a new user by Systems>User Accounts but it is disable and I didn't find where entry the password and set the grants. Is there an easy way by windows instead of terminal? If not, what is the simplest way to create an user that will be equivalent to a Microsoft Windows 8 user but without administration privileges?
