    Displaying User Accounts


    Hello

    Normally when I start my computer I see two user account icons on the screen side by side, "Ian" and "Dawn".

    Today, for no reason at all it it has decided to display this differently. I have a user account icon for the last user to login, either "Ian" or "Dawn" and another icon stating "Other User".

    I want it to display like it used to with the "Ian" and "Dawn" user ccount icons side by side.

    Please can you help?

    Thank you.
    Ian.

    Suggestions :

    1. Go to Safe Mode with Networking, and run a full virus scan with the security program you have installed.
    If you want extra help, install malwarebytes and run it. It is one of the best in the business.
    Malwarebytes : Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a free download that removes viruses and malware from your computer
    Pick the " free " version download > after install, click Update > then select Perform Full Scan.

    2. Also while in safe mode, do a system restore. Pick the date ( say 2 days ago )when you did NOT have this problem as your restore point.
