    Don’t Display last Sign in?


    Hi,

    Even when I’m the only person using the pc, is it still good to enable the don’t display last signed in user for extra layer of security?

    If
    - other people see the sign-in screen
    and if
    - you sign in to an MSAccount
    then
    - hiding the last signed-in user name will stop other people seeing your email address.

    It's up to you to decide whether or not you care if those other people see your email address.



    All the best,

    Oops, sorry…It’s a local account not MSA account.

    Then I can't see suppressing the username being of any benefit at all.
