How to Hide/Remove Username and Email from Windows 10 Lock Screen
Setting up a Windows 10 account on your computer with a Microsoft account instead of a local account has become standard, especially for home users. A Microsoft account allows users to sync their settings, documents, photos, and people across devices, and also gives them access to the Store to download and install new universal apps.
As you can see, there are a number of benefits to having a Microsoft account on your computer, but there is one caveat: Windows 10 displays your real name and email address on the lock screen by default. While displaying your information makes your computer more personal, it is also a privacy concern for many users, as anyone, anywhere, can easily find out your name and email address.
Unfortunately, Windows 10 doesn't offer any options in the Settings app to prevent your real name or email address from being displayed on the lock screen. However, if you really care about your privacy and want to hide this information from the login screen, you can accomplish this task with a very simple workaround.
