    Good morning to all.
    I have got a hop laptop it’s a new one hp255G6 model I think I got model correct.Problem is when I login from a fresh startup it shows two accounts one with my name and image other is just a blank one,now every time I want to login I have to go to bottom left and select the one with my name.
    How can I overcome this issue is it possible to delete the blank account.I also have tried to setup to login without using password etc but this two accounts is causing a problem. I’m the only user so don’t need a login password,as it’s now set to a PIN number password until I get rid of that second login that shows up.
    Hep Please. Many thanks.David.*Sad

  2. Two email accounts, two different email notifications

    Hello,

    I have an Nokia E75 phone, with 7 email accounts, but I'm notified when an email was received only for primary and secondary account (diplayed on Home screen). Why ? and how can I resolve that ? Thank you.

  3. Two email accounts, two different email notifications

    Hello,



    I have an Exchange accoutn and a POP3 account on my Nokia E71. Right now I have email notifiction set up for both accounts and it works. I was wondering if there was a way to configure the notifcations such that each email account has a different sounding
    notification or am I wasting my time looking for this in the settings somewhere?



    thanks

    Two accounts

    Win + R keys to bring up run dialog. In the run dialog box that opens, run:
    netplwiz

    In the netplwiz window that opens, remove the checkbox from the option "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" then click the Apply button. In the new dialog box that opens, just click the cancel button. The check will back in the option for "Users must enter a user name.....", leave it checked this time and click on OK.

    That will clear out the "ghost" user on the login screen.

    Okay will have a go at your idea.
    many thanks.

    Hi. Maybe a stupid question to you, Do I really need a Microsoft login name and password. My outlook email comes through thunderbird.
    Thanks.

    You don't need a Microsoft Account login. You can use just a local account if you want to.
