All User Accounts Don't Show in Logon Window

I have five User Accounts (one of which is Administrator and one of which
is Guest). However, only two accounts show when I log on (two of the
'other' accounts). How do I get all the accounts to show in the logon
window? Thank you.......

I should add that I'd like to set up an Administrator account but it
won't let me name it Administrator because it says there's alread an
account by that name. I can't find it.

I am incorrect above when I say I have an Administrator account that
shows at Login. It doesn't.

Run this command in an elevated command prompt to make the Administrator
account visible:
net user Administrator /active:yes

When you don't need it for a while, run the command with no instead of yes.

That's for *the* administrator account. A user account with a different
name and administrator privileges has only a slightly limited set of those
privileges.

I have heard (but not tried it myself) that if you press Ctrl-Alt-Del when
the login screen is visible you'll also see the Administrator account.
