Changing to "SystemAccount=true" is indeed a way (workaround) to hide a user from the login screen when using lightdm + accountsservice.

This machine has gone through all successive upgrades of all versions (not just LTS) since 2014. This is probably some incompatibility between some version of the Unity and Gnome.

Can't really tell. But it's obvious that you have the ability to configure your user, and also did so. We don't have the information needed to say if the configuration you did is of such a nature that gnome-control-center ought to recognize it. So if you take a newly created user (which g-c-c does recognize) and change it in a similar way as you did with your original user, so g-c-c no longer sees it, and let us know exactly what you did, then we have something to take a stand on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876460 Title: No users appear in settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1876460/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
