I have Vista business.

On my logon screen where I can choose the user, I have two of the same
account (same name, same desktop after logging in, same password,
everything). This started after I changed my password in account
management.

In Computer Management | Local Users and Groups | Users this account is only
shown once. How do I stop the logon screen from displaying 2 when there is
only one?

Not exactly match neverless maybe this is the one option with
automatically logon in Vista
http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/66...matically.html

from this link:


Be sure to enter the correct password for the selected user account to
have Vista automatically log on to at startup. If this user account does
not have a password, then leave it blank. If you change the user account
password, be sure to change it here as well. If you enter or have a
incorrect password for this user account you will get a *Incorrect
Password* error at the next startup. When you click OK to this at the
logon screen, you will then see a duplicate logon icon for this user
account. You can fix this problem by loging on to another account, or
boot into '*_Safe_mode_*'
(http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/12...afe-mode.html), and change
the password to the correct one in step 7 below and restart again.


If it is another problem StartSearchlusrmgr.msc

and check for all accounts Name and Full Name (attached image)

Thank you for your replies.

I did the procedure at
http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/66...matically.html then used
Ctrl-Alt-Del to change the password to match.

It's now back to automatically logging me on and when I log off, it only
displays the one account, not a duplicate.
