Yes, this can happen after updates to Windows 10 Home edition. >From the desktop, click the Windows key to get to the start display.
On the start display, click the three horizontal lines (menu symbol) in the upper left corner. You should see a sidebar that has a "Settings" symbol just above the power symbol at the bottom of the sidebar On the settings display, click the Accounts item.

Let us know how it goes either way or you have troubles with the procedure and more questions. - Dennis PS: Please reply to the users list, not to me.
