Standard warning: Registry Editor is a powerful tool and misusing it can render your system unstable or even inoperable. RELATED: Learning to Use the Registry Editor Like a Pro (If you have Pro or Enterprise, though, we recommend using the easier Group Policy Editor, as described in the next section.)

If you have Windows 10 Home, you will have to edit the Windows Registry to make these changes. Home Users: Hide Extra Personal Information on the Sign In Screen by Editing the Registry If you want to also remove your name and picture, you’ll need to dive into the Registry or–if you have Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise–use the Group Policy Editor. That setting will remove your email address from the sign in screen, but leave your name and picture in place.
