  1. user account name


    can I remove the user account only from my pc login screen, and not anywhere else? I tried to install office & update windows 10, but my sign in screen name changed. The email accounts of 2 accounts I have are now on the PC sign in screen. There doesn't seem to be anything new relating to the accounts/emails. I do use them for google so I don't want to delete the entire accounts.

    :)

    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.

      If there’s no name listed yet, select Add name.
