Are emptied all well-known default user profile picture folders win10 pro, file explorer search on all files where hidden files are shown does not show any user-192.png items. Nevertheless avatar appears on startup screen. Wondering where is the corresponding image is located?
In Win 10 Home that is under:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Default Account Pictures
However that is a grey background not the original transparent background one, no idea where that comes from or is generated.
"C:\Users\your user name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\AccountPictures"
At least on Win10 Pro. The reason a search will not show it if searching for a known picture type is because it doesn't have an extension, just a random alpha-numerical identifier.
win 10 pro startup shows original transparent avatar. At the same time account picture folders are empty and user default profile image place in account settings is also empty (no avatar).
