  1. Why do I have two different logins


    I don't know how this happened but I have two different login options when I open Windows .One account is named bobes, those are the first 5 letters of my email adddress. Since I would never have used a login like that, I'm assuming Windows created that one without my realizing it.When Windows starts, or restarts, there are 2 accounts that appear.I assigned a PIN to only one account and that's the one I want to use.The 'incorrect' account asks for the username and password. That is the account I don't want.I seem to feel that this two account situation presents problems when I try to navigat

    Can't login to new computer w/Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.


    • Are you able to login to Microsoft Account on Web?

    • Have you installed any language pack?
    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to select the appropriate language in login screen at the bottom right corner and check if it helps.

    Steps 2: Use On-screen keyboard in the login screen to login and check if it helps.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.

    Lock vs Login screen screenshot

    Hi Josey -

    Thanks for the quick reply. While your suggestion does change the sign in process, it doesn't address the differing screenshot question. Following the steps doesn't make the login screenshot the same as the Lock screenshot. As I mentioned, I can't even find the screenshots being used for both screens.

    Still looking a solution to this. Open to any other suggestions you might have to the problem. Thanks!

    Lock vs Login screen screenshot

    You can use your own image of any background and just go to settings/personalize/lock screen and click on browse as in the image below. It should make whatever picture you use as the Lock Screen
