Windows 10: Lock screen it starts with an unknown account that is not in my accounts. How do I delete it?

On start up the lock screen most of the time opens with an unknown account. I have gone into the registry to try an delete or deactivate it with out success. There are a lot of "accounts" in the Netplwiz>users> advanced. In the first tab "users" there are two accounts. Correct. When I click advanced there is a list of accounts. I have tried to deactivate those accounts but the unknown account still starts on my lock screen.

When the unknown account shows up it asks for a password. I clicked on it and I had an option to change password and asked me to insert the change password disk. What a change password disk?


I just want my account, Jan Administrator, to show up on startup lock screen and the second one if I click on the lock screen.

Accounts are:

Jan Administrator

jnhubb(extra account as recommended by other W 10 it professionals)

Thank you for all your help as I am an newbie to W 10.

Deleting User Accounts

If you can access the admin account through safe mode then all you have to do to remove the other account passwords is go into User Accounts in the control panel and either delete the accounts or, I'm not sure, remove the account passwords.

Remove account


I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
To delete an account, follow these steps:

1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
   
   Code:
