Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 Build 16299.19 Double Login Screen Problem

Lat227,

                Thank you for your reply its very clear that yes I had no issues until this double login.I have been unfortunate to say the least each time I requested a remote support call even with me talking to them telling them all I have been doing and trying to fix some many issues I have to say my OS isnt working well in fact its that slow Im not going to try anymore workarounds clearly with over 10 serious issues after my featured update all I can do is wait now to obtain a clean install when next update comes.

Thank you for your reply its more than I expected from support as it is clear that you were helped with a good technican 

I am glad they got you sorted enjoy win 10 

respectfully

Hi Jeffery......A Microsoft engineer fixed this same issue on my system Oct 25th and the double log-in problem has never returned. I'll paste below what I said back then.

 Microsoft Support resolved my problem of needing to do a "Double Login" at the Lock screen. The case # is 1401994032. She used the run command " netplwiz ' to enter my user account and check the box " users must enter a user name and password to use this computer. Then restarted the system and all is well. I have restarted or power cycled the machine a dozen times the last two days to test everything and I only need a single login at the lock screen. Also, I looked at my privacy setting under the "sign-in options" and " use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after a update or restart is "Turned On ". Perhaps, someone with Microsoft could look at the "case #" and work up an Official Fix for this problem to release to everyone. "

Hello Jeffrey,

           Please follow my Suggestion for a temporary Workaround to the second sign in Bug. This should take care of having to do a Double sign in. However!... I did NOT have the other problems you are experiencing with the Fall Creators 1709. (Below is my original post)..

>"Hi Microsoft and All,

Observation: After looking and tinkering with some of the settings, I find (that for me anyway) If I go to "Settings">Accounts>Sign-In Options> then scroll to the bottom of the screen, and turn "**OFF"**this switch 

And then "Reboot" my system, Windows will only ask for my Password Once and boot into Win 10 Fall Creators as normal. 

after this trial I returned the switch to the "On" position and the problem Returned. I will leave it "On" until Microsoft can Confirm the problem or Fix it correctly.  Has anyone else experienced this?... 

I do NOT submit this as a FIX, or Suggest, that anyone try this suggestion. I Posted this here in Hopes that a Microsoft engineer will see it, and hopefully be able to point them into the right direction for a permanent Patch release in the next update. If anyone try's this, you do so, at your own Risk.

I am a voluntary Microsoft Community Member like yourselves, and do Not work for Microsoft. 

Thank-You

Edit: 10/21/17 2:08pm After doing a Google search on this problem, I find that I'm Not the only one that has stumbled onto this. Someone on October 13th 2017 which is posted before me,  had almost this same information posted on "Reddit.com"labeled "Windows 10 Fall Creators Double login". "Just sending Credit to Where It belongs, after ALL it appears to me that they discovered it first" :)

Good Luck and Best Regards...
