    Personal picture not showing on logon screen during startup


    Not that this is an earth shattering*problem (grin) but I was wondering if anyone has had a problem with their local account picture not showing up on their Welsome screen in Windows 10, 1607?

    I am the only person that uses my* desktop PC and it's located in a secure environment so I chose to continue using my local account on my system vs my LIVE account.* In addition, my environment is secure enough that I also chose to have the system automatically log on so I don't have to enter my password each time I start my system.

    Prior to the 1607 release my system would start up and jump immediately to my desktop just as it did in Windows 7.* After 1607*the Welcome screen momentarily displays before it displays my desktop.* When this Welcome screen momentarily is displayed, instead of displaying the photograph of me above my*first name*it instead displays the person symbol that Microsoft provides as an account default in the event that the user does not provide a picture of their own.
    Now, I have a laptop that also is running Windows 10, 1607 that's setup the same way as my desktop PC and when I power up my laptop it does show my photograph of me above my first name on that Welcome screen.* I've double checked my desktop PC and the*my picture does properly show up if I go into account settings so I'm*clueless as to why the picture shows up on my laptop*during startup but not my desktop PC.* Again not an earth shattering problem but*I'd like to fix it if possible.**

    :)

  3. windows 10 - Logon screen user list

    In a default installation the active users do show up on the logon screen. If they don't then you need to look at the persons who modified your setup rather than blaming Microsoft. To illustrate your concern it would be helpful if you posted a picture of
    your logon screen.

    I had the same problem (there is another thread in this forum about it). Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3189866) released today fixed it for me.

    Thanks for the heads up. I was sitting at my computer when your posting notice arrived in my inbox and after I applied the update from Microsoft today (9/13/2016) the problem with the photo not appearing was resolved for me as well. Thanks again.
