One of the issues that many Windows 10 users are facing after the update is that they have to login 2 times in a row in order to access their computer. Now, I personally didn&#8217;t face this issue but I know many people who have encountered this same problem and not to mention, people around the world are already complaining about this issue in the forums and Q&amp;A websites.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Although, Microsoft didn&#8217;t mention any particular solution to this date but we have found 3 remedies to fix when login screen appears twice in Windows 10.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: 24px;\">Method #1: Disable the Auto Sign-in option after update<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">One of the reasons why the computer shows the<strong> logon screen twice<\/strong> is because many users enable the auto sign-in option after update. So, whenever your computer is updated the new computer setup detects your administrator users twice. One from the system and one from the update. \u00a0Here&#8217;s how to disable that option \u2013<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 1. Click on Start and Search the Settings option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 2. Select \"<strong>Update &amp; Security<\/strong>\" button and click on \u201cAdvanced options\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 3. Under the \u201cChoose how updates are installed section\u201d, find the option that says \u201cUse my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after an update or restart\u201d. Make sure to uncheck this option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-592\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/advanced_option_windows.jpg\" alt=\"Advanced options\" width=\"600\" height=\"342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/advanced_option_windows.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/advanced_option_windows-300x171.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 4. Restart your computer and now you should be asked to enter the password once only. If you <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/reset-windows-10-password.html\">forgot the password<\/a>, try <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/windows-password-recovery.html\">WinGeeker<\/a> to reset it to blank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">If the issue still persists then you may have multiple administrator accounts that can be removed by using the following method.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: 24px;\">Method #2: Delete Duplicate Administrator Account Profiles<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Like we mentioned, if your computer is still asking to enter the password twice then there&#8217;s a high chance that your computer may have couple of duplicate accounts. You must remove them to dismiss this issue forever by following the below steps \u2013<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 1. Press Windows and R keys together to launch the Run app.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 2. Type \u201cnetplwiz\u201d and press enter to open the user accounts menu.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 3. If you see two administrator accounts with the identical name then you must remove one to diminish this issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 4. Just select the username that you want to delete and click on \u201cRemove\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-593\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/windows_login_screen_twice.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"463\" height=\"510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/windows_login_screen_twice.jpg 463w, https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/windows_login_screen_twice-272x300.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 463px) 100vw, 463px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Step 5. Click on \u201cApply\u201d followed by \u201cOK\u201d and reboot the computer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">This should resolve the issue for you if you had more than 1 administrator account in the computer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Hopefully, the methods shared in this article will definitely resolve the issue &#8211; Windows loading screen appears twice and your Windows 10 computer will not prompt you to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/reset-hp-laptop-login-password.html\">enter the password<\/a> twice again<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also read:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/hide-folders-files-in-windows-10.html\">How to Hide Folders and Files while Searching in Windows 10?<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/fix-microsoft-edge-not-working-on-windows-10\/\">Fix Microsoft Edge Not Working on Windows 10<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tunesbro.com\/blog\/windows-10-taskbar-not-working\/\">How to Fix Windows 10 Taskbar Not Working Issue<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Windows 10 has been recently updated by Microsoft with some major bugs that are yet to be resolved.
