    Phantom Sign-on Identity


    Normally, when I turn on my PC, Windows gives me two ways to sign on: as myself or as Administrator, with a photo of my face by each. But sometimes it starts up with a ghost identity having my name but no photo, and for which I don't know the password. How do I fix this?

    Also, how do I get it to default to my non-Administrator identity?

    Running Win 10 x64 Ver 2004

  2. Phantom Dust cannot sign in

    Hi,

    There are several factors that may have caused the issue in signing in to Phantom Dust. It is possible that you are unable to sign in to the game itself.

    To properly isolate your concern, please provide us the following information:

    • Are you launching the game through Xbox app?
    • Are you signed in to your account on the Xbox app?
    • Based on the image that you provided, what happens when you click the Yes button?

    Phantom router on network

    Phantom devices has been going on since Windows 8.1
    Don't worry about them, I get a varying selection of neighbours phones, printers, smart TVs etc. They are not connecting, as you have noted no IP address.

    "Also, any suggestions for a program that will scan the network and list all units "attached" to it?"

    My Netgear Modem/Router/WAP does just that. Just look in Advanced Tab > Administration > Attached Devices. It lists wired, wireless 2.4G and 5G Devices.
