Windows 10: Other user accounts not showing up on the side when logging into my computer

I turn on my computer and there use to be 4 accounts that showed up. Now it doesn't show any and I can only access the main account. I was using my other account a couple days ago and now I cannot see them. Please help

User Account

Hi Barry,

We cannot use a standard (local) account to change the account type to administrator. We can only use an existing administrator account to do this.

We suggest following these steps on how to change the account type to administrator using the existing administrator account:

• Press Windows key + X on your keyboard, then click on
  Control Panel.
• Choose User Accounts, and then select User Accounts again.
• Under Make changes to your user account, click on Manage User Accounts. (It will show all user accounts and administrator account on the computer.)
• Sign out and log on with any administrator account.
• Go back to Control Panel/User Accounts.
• Click on Manage User Accounts and then select the standard account you wish to change.
• Select the Change Account Type option.
• Select the Administrator option to change the account and click the
  Change Account Type button.

Get back to us if you have other concern.

In order to help you better, could you please confirm a couple of things:

To test the issue I suggest you to create a new user account and restart the computer and check whether you can find other new user account.

I suggest you to create a new user account and check if the issue occurs.
