No. I found details about it here[^], here[^] and another way to supposedly fix it here[^].
Thanks for trying again.

Sorry, this may be useless, I hardy touch windows but try opening the policy editor for local policies and checking out the options in there, you're probably likely to find it.
Fairly sure thats where all the applicable settings where last time I had an issue like this, Fairly sure I've had a security suite kill me with something like that.

Being serious, it may not be possible, if it's caused by updates. Probably done by M$ in the name of 'simplifying things'.
You can get programs that custom-make your login screen[^], so that might be an option. Obviously it might be a security risk too, but that's up to your discretion.
Give changing Fast User Switching on/off as well. That might have something to do with it.
Another hacky workaround is to design an auto-login program that logs both users in on PC bootup, in some way - that will make their icons be specified explicitly as per the lock screen design.

So, a while back I started listening through Rolling Stone magazine's list of 500 Greatest Albums of All-Time[^] starting with #500 and working my way down to #1. I'm on #458 (Elton John's Tumbleweed Connection) right now. Prior to that was The Drifters' Golden Hits, preceded by Hole's Live Through This. Needless to say, it's been a strange day at work... 
I haven't skipped a single song, although I've definitely wanted to a few times. Yesterday, I listened to Metal Box from Public Image Ltd, which was probably the most difficult album to get through so far... Just an awful album. 
Has anyone else ever done this? I got the idea from a friend I went to college with.

Actually not. The list is a mash up of the opinions of just about anybody who ever wrote for (or in some cases merely bought a copy of!) Rolling Stone. The result is a really weird list with a heavy emphasis on what was cool in the late sixties and early seventies (half a dozen Beatles albums in the top 50 with Sgt. Pepper no. 1!) and none of the top 15 from outside that period. Nirvana's the first 90s album at 17. I very much doubt that there is anybody in the whole world who has purposely listened to every song on every album on the list. Personally I wouldn't give 75% of it the time of day!

I wouldn't go beyond top 50. What other ideas has your friend come up with?

I wouldn't bother with the top 50 either unless you're particularly interested in the careers of The Beatles and Bob Dylan!

I couldn't listen to anything that included The Smiths!

We have Donald Trump - comic relief at combed-over best.
I mean really - you have FIFA. And the French. And I can even throw in English cuisine.
But trump is stand-alone. We can enjoy without taking any responsibility.

I mean his opening speech: he'll build a wall on the Mexican border and make Mexico pay for it.
Really - even Putin has to take off his hat to that.

Alas - I had hoped it would be amusing enough to "both sides" to pass as neutral.
Deep down inside, however, I know you're right.

It depends on who is complaining about your post.
I guess most would agree that ALL politics has to go to Soapbox, no matter what, due to the potential of flare up. I don't know.
Edit: but I agree with you.

I nearly posted about him after reading the snippets of his speech the other day.
This isn't politics, it is f***wittery at its finest and just because he is currently attempting to dabble in politics doesn't mean that the ridicule shouldn't be as wide as possible.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

If you look at the Daily Show following that announcement - it's why I think we're so fortunate having "The Donald" at hand.
Even Shakespearean tragedies were not without their court jester.

In Israel, we can enjoy FIFA's meltdown just as easily. No Israeli team has made it to the World Cup since 1970, and the chances of the World Cup ever being played in Israel are fat and slim...
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I just have one thing to comment on here:
the chances of the World Cup ever being played in Qatar are fat and slim...
oh, wait a minute, just throw enough money at a problem... Even Donald trumps hair can be sorted out if the price is high enough

Yes, "The Donald" is an air-bag and a putz but the truly sad part is that he's only a little tiny bit worse than ALL the other air-bags and putzes running for POTUS. 
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

Prior to the present car-wreck of a president we went eight years with no president at all.
Not the first time. A smiling face is all you need. A talking head.
Oddly, a bit like a StarTrek plot of long ago.
