Welcome screen corruption: Windows Security|Please enter a username...
Hi,
For a long time, I've had just one administrator account on my Win7 x64 PC.
I've recently added a second administrator account but I see corruption on the welcome screen.
Here's what I see when Windows boots up. It says "Windows Security | Please enter a username and password."
When I click on "OK", I see the following: An account placeholder picture with no text beneath. Another placeholder for an account picture with "Other user" underneath.
Both my accounts have images associated with them, and they both have bespoke names (neither of which appear in the image):
When I click on either account, this is what I see:
I can log in by typing in the user name. Neither account have a password.
I was expecting to see the Welcome screen straight away and display the two accounts (names+images), then click to enter.
I have tried turning on and off classic log-in using the Tutorials > User Accounts (at the top of this website) but it doesn't make any difference to the initial corrupted screen.
Edit: To add, when I log in, then log out of either account, the welcome screen displays as normal (images+account names appear). That's the only time the welcome screen appears normally.
Anyone know how to resolve this corruption?
