    Windows 10 Duplicate User on sign-in page


    There is already an article with this subject but it says updated 18 July 2018 but all the articles are dated 2015.

    My question therefore is - is there any later information as all the suggestions I've read don't work.

    :)

    Hi Andre,

    Thanks for your response, I followed your instructions, but there are no duplicate accounts there, and the box is already unchecked.

    Duplicate user at Sign-In screen Windows 10

    I have an issue around a duplicate user on the sign-in page of windows 10. I have check the users and groups in this machine and there is only 1 user but when I restart my PC, the machine automatically tries to log into this duplicate account but the password
    does not match. This has only just began today and the only thing I have changed is my PC name. Any help is appreciated.

    Duplicate user on sign in page

    Press Windows key + R

    Type: control userpasswords2

    Hit Enter

    If you see the duplicate account there, select it then click Remove.

    If not, you can still configure Windows to auto-sign in.

    Press Windows key + R

    Type: control userpasswords2

    Hit Enter

    Uncheck 'Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer'

    Click Apply then OK.
