In Unix-like systems, the list of registered users can be viewed by examining the /etc/passwd file. To do this, simply run the command:
cat /etc/passwd
Each line in this file corresponds to a user and contains information in the following format:
username:x:UID:GID:comment:home_directory:shell
For easier viewing, you can use the cut or awk command to display only the usernames:
cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd
In Windows, the list of users can be obtained via the command line using:
net user
Or through PowerShell:
Get-LocalUser
