Hi

We are a school, where we use bort Google Workspace and Windows Azure/Entra ID for all teachers and students. That works fine. We are moving towards only usin Microsoft though. The youngest students may find it difficult to write and remember email and passwords, so they often use a simple local "guest" account on our Chromebooks - but I am now replacing those with new hardware, running Win11 Pro.

So I made a local account, "student" and no password on the pc's. Works fine, but as the pc's are also being used by older students, I don't think the young will be good the process of select other user, type in "./Student" in the user-field, I'd rather have an icon they can click on.

But how do set up in11 Pro pc's, that on the blue first "Welcome" screen not only have the options for user, where you type ind user credentiels(email) in field 1 and password below, but on the screen I have the "Student" icon always present?

Thanks in advance
