Bob,
Many thanks, had to delete and recreate the account for some
reason but it's now gone from the login options.

cheers,
Len

Hi Jeff,

If the account is hidden, you will not be able to logon to it. You will
have to logon to another account or unhide it to be able to logon to it
again.

If you hid your only account, then see if you can boot into Safe Mode
and unhide it.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
