Two accounts with same name if I logout of Windows 10?

[bookie32]

Hi guys!

Do not understand....

Upgraded a computer from Windows 7 to Windows 10 for a customer and if I logout of Windows there are two entries for same account....

No there is no duplicate account in same name and despite different attempts it is still there....?

I even added a password for this local account and can login from both entries...)

Check the "full name" against "user name".

I have seen reports where the issue was created by having a "user name" different from "full name".

Open a cmd window, in it run:

wmic useraccount get /format:list

or, if you want to better review the list:

wmic useraccount get /format:list>C:\myaccounts.txt
