Windows 10 Login Screen User Image Blurred After 2004 Update

Does anyone else now have a blurred user image at the Windows 10 login screen?

I'm not talking about the general burred 'Acrylic' effect that applies to the background, but the actual user image.

I have a PC which hasn't been updated to 2004 and the user image is sharp although the background is blurred.

On the upgraded PC the user image is burred as well as the background - only the password box is sharp.

Other fixes refer only to removing the blur effect entirely - I just want to clear it from the user image.

Hi Russell

I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this . . .

On that PC, are you using the default User Profile Pic and that is now a black and white blurred image, if so, that is a known bug caused by that update

Open the Settings App

Go to Accounts - Your Info, then click the 'Browse for One'

Navigate to this folder: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures

Set the profile pic to User.bmp
