    duplicate of my username on the login screen


    hey guys.
    i have tried eveything google can search up for this issue. i am at a loss. my issue remains with a duplicate of my username on the login screen.
    i have tried deactivating my Microsoft account, netplwiz, cmd profile, registry profile deletes ( which delete all my settings and files, maybe i deleted the wrong one??)
    any ways, is there something that i am missing?
    Thanks in advanced!

    :)

    How to change list of clickable usernames on login screen?

    Hi,

    customer has Ad domain with a lot of Windows 10 pro workstations. Users are frequently changing at same workstation and it is kinda annoying that Windows 10 login screen displays only 2 usernames on bottom left corner:

    - <Last loged in user>

    - Other user

    Is it possible somehow to edit and set the list of usernames displayed there, to be, for example, list of 4 specific users?

    • Are you able to login to Microsoft Account on Web?

    • Have you installed any language pack?
    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to select the appropriate language in login screen at the bottom right corner and check if it helps.

    Steps 2: Use On-screen keyboard in the login screen to login and check if it helps.

    "username placeholder" displayed on login screen

    Hi,

    Lock screen usernames will depend on the user settings that were saved on your computer. To isolate your concern with the lock screen issue, we’d like to know the following:

    • The version of your Windows. To know which version of Windows you are using, press
      Windows + R to open run window, type
      winver and press Enter.
    • Number of local accounts registered on your computer.
    • If your lock screen credentials is also a Microsoft Account.
    • If there are any error messages that you encounter.
    • If you can provide a photo of your lock screen.
    • Troubleshooting steps you’ve done so far.
    • Changes you've made prior to your concern other than updating Windows 10.

    We’re looking forward to your response.
