    Family member login query

    Thank you Shawn 'Cmdr' Keene [MVP] for your assistance but I'm afraid I'm no further! I'll explain. When I go Settings/Accounts/ Manage my Accounts, the family member clearly shows up! So far so good! But when I try to switch user to login family
    member with say, Ctrl+Alt+Del, then I just get back to my login again. In other words I still can't login the family member.

    Family member login query

    No I'm sorry, I don't see the name of the family member that has been added when I go to "switch user" or when I follow, settings/accounts/ family. Microsoft have confirmed that I do have a family member but the member cannot be found.
