  1. PC Boots to 'Other 'User' after windows reinstall


    My Dell Inspiron 580 desktop boots to 'other user'. I don't use a password and I am the only user so have always had it boot to my account and desktop. I have reinstalled windows many times but never had this before. Looking at netplwz shows just my account. How do get it back to booting t my desktop?

    Windows 10, At touch screen sign on using photo password as admin, others users not visible.

    I have a "touch screen" Dell pc with multi-users. No issues with Windows 8 using a
    photo password as administrator. All other users are visible at boot up.

    Upgraded to Windows 10 and after booting up, the only choice available to sign in is the administrator. No other users can get to the sign on screen after booting up.
    They are not visible.

    I changed from signing on with a photo password to a typed password
    and all users are visible at boot up. It does not default only to the administrator like before.

    I have another "non-touch screen" Dell laptop pc, just upgraded to Windows 10, and have no issues signing on with multi users.

    So the issue seems to be, when using a photo password on Windows 10, as an administrator, other user sign on options are not visible.

    Any help?

    Hi Sumit,

    Other users who were experiencing the same issue found out that reinstalling the Boot Camp driver for the mouse in Windows 10 worked for them. Do you have the latest Boot Camp drivers installed on your PC? You might need to get in touch with Apple support
    for assistance with downloading the appropriate drivers.

    Let me know if you need further assistance.
