  1. Hiding an active User Account in Windows 10?


    Q. I am wondering if there is a way to actively hide a user account in Computer Management in Users without the account actually being disabled? So that basically unless you are actually signing into this account, nobody from the outside knows that the account exists.

    Right-click this PC...
    Manage...
    Local Users and Groups...
    Users...

    Thanks for any answers. *Smile

    How to hide the user accounts that are on the bottom left on the lock screen on Windows 10?

    On the previous versions of windows the lock screen only show the last user account on the lock screen, that it was helpful to hide the admin accounts from the standard users.

    On Windows 10 that is not an option any more, or at least it does not show the way to activate it.

    So How can i hide the user accounts that are on the bottom left on the lock screen on Windows 10?

    The password reset wizard option does show up in the user account screen, how do I get the wizard started. Where is it hiding so I can activate it manually?
