Windows 10: Odd account issues every reboot since Windows 10 2004 Update

Windows 10 version 2004 (Build 19041.329)

I have been experiencing some odd account issues with my PC since the 2004 Feature Update.

At login, I am told that my Outlook account had an issue and I am asked to log back in.

Additionally, Google Music Manager has lost its credentials and I am asked to sign back in. Amazon Photos does not start with the PC as it used to in the 1909 build. Microsoft Outlook will prompt me for my email password when I start it.

Most annoyingly, I have had to remap my Synology drive to my PC every time I reboot. If I try to access the mapped drive, I am told that I need to enter my credentials. If I do that, I am told they are wrong. By deleting it and remapping it, I can access it.

It's almost as if there's an issue with a part of Windows that would be similar to what Keychain is on Mac, that is affected from this latest build.

Is this part of a broader set of issues that others are experiencing? Is there any advice floating around out there?

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown

 

New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

Heres a couple examples:

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
