    eliminating signin, using netplwitz box unchecking does not work and only creates a ghost...


    Like many safe-enviroment people, I do NOT want ANY sign-in or logon screen. I desire simply to open my laptop and soon see the desktop. I can't believe windows, now umpteen years in development, doesn't practice 'universal design' accomodating all users, scenarios, etc. with user-friendly methods. Why isn't this option simply located in accounts near the fingerprint storage?OK, so ...netplwitz... uncheck box require sign-in...But IT DOESN'T FUNCTION. All that happens is a duplicated 'ghost' user is added to the sign-in screen. &n

    windows 10 -- eliminate blue ghost shadows to the right of icons and words

    In windows 10 a blue ghost shadow appears to the right of all icons and words. How does one eliminate this. I've tried the path of going to advanced settings and unchecked the visual referring to the shadows and this does not work.

    eliminating signin, using netplwitz box unchecking does not work and only creates a ghost...

    Properties>Security>Group or User Names panel - How do I enter a name in it?

    Thank for providing us the information. We've already tried multiple troubleshooting steps and the same issue still persists. In this case, let's try to troubleshoot your issue by eliminating ghost login, follow the steps below:

    • First, open netplwiz, then uncheck the box for Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer.
    • Then, on the pop-up window, click Cancel.
    • Make sure the box for Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer should be checked again.
    • Lastly, click OK.

    These will help us to eliminate ghost login.

    We look forward to your response.
