    Is there a way to prevent my email ID showing up as a user on Windows Login screen ?


    I am the admin for local account on Windows 11I create a new user account for a user to login using an email.Then I log out or got switch user.In the screen that shows , it shows the actual full email ID of the user such as *** Email address is removed for privacy *** .I do not want the user's email shown on login screen. I think that is sort of a security risk because if an email ID is displayed pubicly, hackers can track down the email id & possibly log into this systemThe crazy this is that , for a user type with login using just password, I can actually change user name that is displayed on login screen

    :)

    List of users is missing in Windows login screen after one of the Windows updates.

    After one of the recent Windows update, the list of users does not show up in Windows login screen and I cannot find any way to switch to a different account during login or after. Any suggestions?

    Ways to bypass the login theme and signin do not work

    Tried setting netplwiz in option 1 step 4 which shows no check in users must enter ..... no bypass of login

    Tried step 4 in option 5 below to disable require sign-on on wakeup via policy via registry but still no change on wakeup still getting the screen picture that requires hitting Esc to move to the sign in window which shows a silhouette image, my user name and a sign in button in order to access my desktop screen. Guess I will have to live with the extra steps.

    Again thanks for your interest and suggestions.

    Is there a way to prevent my email ID showing up as a user on Windows Login screen ?

    login screens

    goto CONTROL PANEL/ USER ACCOUNTS then you have to remove all the other accounts except for the one you logon with....then restart...it should bypass the login tho it will still show the screen for it...it will continue to load windows...good luck*Rockout :rockout:



    edit:: it asks for a login when there are more then one accounts..or if you set a pw to your login name...
