    My login information changed for no reason


    I have multiple computers in my home. We have our own MS login and accounts. Today I log into my desktop and my husband's information is on there. His log in information. His background picture and colors. They took over my computer. I went to settings and saw his name and email listed not mine. I clicked on manage my Microsoft account and it took me to the web and it shows my correct login name, photo, etc. But my computer is still showing his personal information. I cannot change it to just show my name and my photo, desktop background everything - it defaults to his information. What happened in the last 24 hours to have changed these settings? We have never had this happen before. I was able to go to Personalize and correct my desktop picture and colors but his is still saved in there. And his log in information is still showing up in my settings no matter what I do.

    :)

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
