[Whiskey 7]

on 'Switch User" cntrl/alt/del I see "another user" I am not aware off

Hello

Interestingly on boot up I see "another user" but the picture is blank, with a frame around it (I can see through it to the boot wallpaper that I have changed to prove) ..

Who is another user?

Please help as I have been on the 2 days now

Sorry to bump but things have changed somewhat, and yes could start a new topic but will try the edit function as I am not here often. I see 110 views and that's promising

Please advise who is this "another user" icon/picture is blank, with a frame around it (I can see through it to the boot wallpaper that I have changed to prove) .. on control /alt/ delete.

I now have admin rights back (previous problem) but this "another user" can't be found anywhere (I know of) except at login. I am stumped..

Thanks so much Brink

It worked a treat as I made sure I set a restore point (in case) and followed those instructions verbatim.

I did also read elsewhere about netplwiz in the command line about users not having to log in and that seemed to help finally so I suspect that had something to do with it.

This link explains briefly and thanks again because it no longer gets me upset....
