    Meanwhile, that is about English language in a nutshell. The topic could have read, Subaru's Review of Windows 10 Preview Build 9879. For your information, English is the official language used in schools in my country.

    Guys do you see two portraits when logging in with your account?

    I got this bug after the latest update.

    That bug has been reported by people in this forum before. There is no solution to it yet as far as I can remember. The only way to get around it is to do clean installation - as those who come across the problem upgrade from later version of Windows 8.1.

    Regarding the showing of an extra User profile upon login. It appears that in Windows 10 Tech Preview builds it shows hidden user accounts on the login screen when normally it should not. I just wanted to point out that in mine, in particular, is a hidden completely restricted account called 'named' which is used by the ICS BIND DNS local proxy server for DNS lookups and does not show under Windows 7/8.1 etc. This is just my scenario to bring more detail into this already reported bug. This is a clean install as well. So I am wondering if some of you may have a hidden user account.

    The other issue that I remember, relating to this, was when I did perform the upgrade initially from 9841 to 9860 and that one did bring another account picture to the login screen. I apologize if this has been posted already (so many pages here already) but I was able to fix that by going to Control Panel - Folder Options - View tab - select Show hidden folders, files, and drives. Then simply go here 'C:\Users' and you will see an extra user account that is not in use anymore and contains not a whole lot of data, since that data had already been copied over to your new user account that happens automatically when you do these Tech Preview upgrades. I don't recall the actual name of that junk user account at the moment, but it should stand out as odd to you. Simply delete that user folder and restart Windows. You can backup that user folder as well to another directory just to be on the safe side. This fixed the issue for me when I did the upgrade a while back. Now I just do clean installs. Alternatively, you can you to Control Panel - System - System protection - Advanced tab - click on Settings in the User Profiles section. You may also delete the extra user account in there that was used during the upgrade process. You can check the Modified Date to ensure it was from when you upgraded prior to deleting it.

    This will make the extra account disappear from logon screen, provided that it is truly the user account used during upgrade and not a real, active user account.

    Thank you for clearing that up. It is noted from most reports to be coming from upgrades from previous Windows 8.1. For those who have reported the problem in the past experienced it through upgrade and I am basing my information on that which clean installation seems to be the best solution.

    However, I would like to know about the problem in clean Windows 10 Preview build 9841. I hope you aren't talking about clean installation of Windows 10 Preview Build 9860.

    That is interesting. I have not come across anything like that though. Are you using clean installation(9860) or upgrade from previous Windows 8.1?

    Thanks for sharing your experience but I only have a single account and what I see is more of a duplicate.

    I did a clean install of 9860 and have the same issue with two portraits when logging in.
