    Remove user account picture on lock-screen.


    I recently updated to Version 1903 and the usual tactics to get rid of the user account picture or default logo on the lock-screen are not working.

    This is what I want to remove to the left of the red arrow:

    I used the methods successfully outlined in this thread before; but now Microsoft has somehow devised a way to hide where the logo picture is located on the system ---------- here is that thread I am talking about:

    Remove User Account Picture

    I have even deleted the accounts SID folder that was empty anyhow, and it still didn't make a difference as outlined here:

    How to Change or Remove User Account Picture in Windows 10 / 8 | Password Recovery

    Anyone know where to look for additional .png images to delete so the logo disappears from the lock-screen?

    I finally figured out what was going on. After deleting all images from C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures

    I had to reapply the registry hack to enable the "user-192" image after re-adding the image to the picture cache. Had to delete and then add back the image. I'm not certain why the registry hack had to be reapplied in order for it to work, as the registry hack was still there in my registry.

    Just wanted to let everyone know that the "Remove User Account Picture" thread still stands the test of time with Version 1903 of Windows.
