Windows 10: When I open win 11 i have one sign in screen, sign in and go to a second identical screen...

This is redundant. I have one sign in screen and I enter the information/password then another sign in screen pops up and I have to sign in again. Why? And why do I need a pin for this computer when I already use a password to open the computer. It is not as though I am carrying around a PC and connecting to different networks.

different lock screen and sign in screen?

Step 2b is labeled as Change the Login Screen Image, but the steps show you how to change the Lock Screen image. Step 2a is irrelevant. It only tells you how to change the desktop background.

What I want to do:
Set Spotlight as the LOCK Screen Image(s) - Done
Set the Win 10 Hero Image as the SIGN IN Screen Image - This is the one that shows after you click on the lock screen and you are able to type your password. If I uncheck "Show Lock Screen Image on Sign In Screen", it shows a solid blue background behind my Password box and user image. This is what I want to change to the Hero Image....

 

Disabling Lock Screen and Sign in Win 10 Pro

Good morning all. Last Saturday I clean reinstalled Win 10 Pro on my laptop. It needed it after almost 5 years. So, for the first couple days, everything was fine. I decided to disable the lock screen and Windows sign in. It was great, then the next day I started getting another, but the same account for me saying that the user name or password is incorrect. With the first account that shows, it just asks for my pin. I signed in to the second one asking for correct name and password, and it is identical to the account asking for my pin. I never added a separate or different account. It just started showing up as two available accounts with all settings showing the same after signing in to either of them. First, how do I get rid of the second account? Second, it shows in all the settings and changes I made that I disabled lock screen and sign in, but I am still getting request to sign in after a reboot. I am attaching screen shots of everything I did. Thanks for the help in advance.

 

Disabling sign in screen

Thanks for the suggestion. I am getting an error: "The user name or password is incorrect. Try again." I think this could be due to an issue with having two user logins with the same name. I get two options on the sign-in screen on the bottom left of the screen, both say Jon Lawrance. See attached.
