    Windows two options on start up.


    Hi,
    I have installed win10 on to my Brothers PC and kept getting the message `Inaccessible Boot Device` and was caught in a loop. I then downloaded the iso file on to a disc and re-installed successfully from there. However when we switch on the PC I get a screen which shows two boxes, One reads Win10 and the other Windows. When I click on Win10 the OS loads. How do I remove the other box?. I have installed Win10 on two other PC`s and have not seen this screen before.
    Many thanks for reading this ant advice would be appreciated.
    Sid.

    :)

    Clear options on start up screen.

    Use Start Button - Settings - Your Account, pick the Sign in Option and follow the directions and you should be OK

    Clear options on start up screen.

    Thank you for taking the time to reply to my question. I have already tried to get rid of this "phantom" user account using sign in options with no success. Still trying other things.

    Windows two options on start up.

    You can see what you can do by running msconfig and checking out the boot options. You should be able to delete that selection.

    And welcome to the forums.
