Hide certain users from login screen greeter (Ubuntu 19.10)
Hi I just finished installing Ubuntu 19.10 on my daughter's computer. I want to hide my own account from the login greeter. I found a way to hide the list of all accounts but that is not really what I want, because that way you need to type the username then and password and it is inconvenient.
Is there a way to only hide certain accounts from the greeter? While still retaining the feature of showing the remaining accounts (not all of them) and just click a user and only type the password?
I've found instructions for Ubuntu 18.04 but they didn't work in 19.10
Thank you
Josh
Even though Its a duplicate of How do I hide a particular user from the login screen?
I have just tried it whether its working or not in Ubuntu 19.10
Fresh Install
It worked..
sudo -H nautilus /var/lib/AccountsService/users/
I have a, b, c, & d user accounts while bullet is my own account (Admin)
I would like to hide user a & c
so open file a
and c
and make SystemAccount field to true.
[User]
Icon=/var/lib/AccountsService/icons/a
SystemAccount=true
then logout and login
the same way I have hidden the Admin User also
