    I have two local accounts on my laptop and when I log in on one of them I simply get a black screen. I am able to ctr-alt-del and switch to the other account where after waiting a while can switch back to the original normally (but has to be about a 5-10 minute wait)

    Is it possible that the display driver is causing issues that affect only 1 account? Checking the startup apps there doesn't seem to be anything different between the 2 accounts. I suspect that something is delaying the startup sequence. The only thing I can think of is maybe OneDrive syncing (it is 80% full on the 1st account and barely used on the 2nd).

    Any suggestions on what the issue can be is much appreciated. Thanks.

    Black Screen after Log on


    So this is not a BSOD ? Have a Windows 10 disc or USB Flash Drive made ? How are you getting to task manager Ctrl.+Alt+Del ? Any cursor on screen ?

    Black Screen after Log on


    Laptop or Desktop (Very important) Windows 10 build 14.586 has a very annoying BUG: That causes Black Screen after login:
    To date there is no cure until Microsoft send Update to fix the problem: OK here goes: When you Login and the Screen Goes Black ==>
    Go to your Function Keys for Screen Brightness Chose to Lighten the Screen (This will make the screen Bright) so that you can view it.
    The BUG is that they reversed (via Software) what the Brightness button does -- So it is currently reversed -- "Lighten" makes it Dark -- "Darken" makes it Bright ==> Go figure Microsoft screw the pooch on this one. . . .

    This is for LAPTOP -- I have never seen this on Desktops but they are fixed rather than adjustable
