    I recently set up a new PC for a company I work with and ran into a problem when I attempted to join it to Active Directory. I am not sure what caused the issue, perhaps something to do with my also upgrading Windows from home to pro, or just some glitch, but I was never able to get the AD binding to work and was forced to back track and just set up the computer using the standard OOBE process with Local Users. So, the computer was supposed to have 3 users with Microsoft accounts actually business accounts and 2 local accounts. Somehow, what has happened is that there is only one useable acc

    different lock screen and sign in screen?

    Step 2b is labeled as Change the Login Screen Image, but the steps show you how to change the Lock Screen image. Step 2a is irrelevant. It only tells you how to change the desktop background.

    What I want to do:
    Set Spotlight as the LOCK Screen Image(s) - Done
    Set the Win 10 Hero Image as the SIGN IN Screen Image - This is the one that shows after you click on the lock screen and you are able to type your password. If I uncheck "Show Lock Screen Image on Sign In Screen", it shows a solid blue background behind my Password box and user image. This is what I want to change to the Hero Image....

    Show Local users and Groups


    Hello,
    I want to get a list of Local Users and Groups as shown in the first screen shot (taken from the Web).
    When I run Computer Management as administrator that information is not available under
    Computer Management > System Tools (second screen shot - my computer)
    How can I get this information?

    Lock screen image changes after restart

    Hello,

    Is the account you are signing in to is a Microsoft Account or a local user account?

    We suggest that you create a new local user account and see if the lock screen reverts back when your device restarts. You may follow the steps below on how to create a local user account:

    • Click the Start button, then select Settings
      > Accounts > Family & other people > Add someone else to this PC.
    • Enter a user name, password, password hint, and then select Next.

    Keep us updated on the results.

    Regards.
