    This didn't use to happen. Cold boot used to take 15 seconds and then after login go straight to desktop.

    I tried unchecking the "use my sign-in into to automatically...." thing. Then, it takes 15 seconds to get to the first screen, but after I login it takes another 20 seconds to load desktop anyway. During this time, the drive LED flashes for the whole time. How can I fix this/ what is happening in that extra time?

  2. Extra Login on Windows 10

    Hi Nick,

    • Have you done any recent update or upgrade before the issue started to happen? Just Windows updates.

    • Are you the only one using your computer? Yes.

    • Do you remember changing any settings prior to this issue? No.

    • Have you installed any applications or program before this happened? No.

    • Do you recognize the other account as one of your household member? Yes, it is mine.

    • What steps have you taken to login to your computer? Login as the other login showing.

    As an FYI: I went to Systems > Accounts > Family & Other People and found an extra login there, under my name. I have deleted it yet as I wasn't sure if it was safe to delete because it says Administrator.

    Installation media boots to command prompt

    I've just booted from known working install media to see exactly what it does when booting. The sequence of events is...

    1. Windows logo on a black screen
    2. circling dots appear beneath the logo
    3. light blue 'Please wait' screen with circling dots
    4. a command prompt window (very briefly)
    5. the initial Setup page appears

    Do you see steps 1-3? If so, it appears you have stopped at step 4, suggesting that something on the disc cannot be read.

    Does the disc boot properly in another machine? If so, try cleaning the laptop's drive lens then try booting from the disc again.

    If not, make new install media with Microsoft's Media Creation Tool, either as a bootable USB, on an ISO that you can burn to another disc. At Step 8 in Option One of this tutorial you can choose between making a USB or an ISO.
