    How to make Windows always show login for a specific user account?


    We have two accounts on our Windows 10 pro. Admin and Standard user. Both have different passwords.

    Issue: If I log in under Admin, say to install updates, and then reboot computer. Upon later boot the login screen will show Admin for the login. This is confusing for the users of this PC when they try to enter the password for the standard user account.

    Question: Is there a way to make Windows show the login screen for a specific Standard user account ALL THE TIME, no matter who was logged in last?

    Yeah, both are local accounts. So I'm not sure what that Microsoft answer really means? If I do that it will obviously boot to the same account like I explained earlier. I need to specify a specific account. (TBH, that Microsoft forum is almost 90% useless. All the answers don't make sense and just rehash general knowledge.)
