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

Hi all,

We are investigating reports of customers being asked to enter their password or PIN twice on the lock screen.

I am confirming the steps Leprechaun J wrote in a previous reply as the correct workaround at this time.

Hi Paul,

          Thank-You for joining the thread and responding to my post. I noticed that you have used the word "Workaround". Does this mean that you are presently working on a Cumulative Update that has a more Permanent Fix to it???....

          Are there any risks that we should be aware of by Temporarily disabling this setting???... privacy/ security/ etc....  What are the problems if Any, do we risk by disabling this setting???. Could you please elaborate???...  

Once again Thank-You Paul.

TIP: Don't Hold Your Breath!

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. Ifanyone 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...

If any of my Reply's to you where Helpful or Your Answer, Please mark as so, Thank-You

Thank You for the suggestion PA Bear, However it's a little bit late for that <Grin>... I have already removed the Old Windows and only have the New version on my system now. And it does work Very Wellexcept for this one little annoyance. That I can most defiantly live with for now, until there is a  official "Bug Fix" released from Microsoft. I did however Edit the Question Title Here, in hopes to attract More members to post here with a " I Have The Same Problem" and since yesterday the "Up Votes" over on the Feedback Hub has more than doubled in size.  Oh... and Yes... that is the old post information I was referring to...<Smile> It's people like you, that make this Community, Very Enjoyable and Helpful.
