Hide email / Ms user account at logon screen - Security !!
Hi there.
I stupidly signed on with an Ms user ID - so at login time it shows my user name (on the computer) + the email address (Ms account user name) on the login.
The old Local user just gave you your USER Name - and a panel to enter the password.
On the Ms user account login you have your name (say Fred) AND an email address say dogs@gmail.com before the panel for entering your password.
This to me is NOT a nice idea and BAD security especially if you say leave your computer LOCKED in a place where people pass through - I don't want to display my email address even on a LOCKED computer.
If I create / switch to a LOCAL account I can't use the same name (excluding the email) that I used for the Ms account.
Bit of a dogs dinner this one --.
Can I "undo" the Ms account and simply use the local account with the same name / settings etc.
Cheers
