    Lost user name in Windows 10

    Thank you for your suggestions. No sign of lost primary user name and password on log in screen or in accounts in control panel. Primary user files, as I said, are still present and available.

    Windows users at login

    I cannot see all of my user accounts on the login screen on a new Windows 10 laptop. I have an account for my son and it does not appear as a user on the login screen. It is listed if I display the users with the CMD prompt. The only account I see is my
    account which is an admin. His account is a user. All the suggestions I've seen are not available on home edition.
