Windows updates hide password icon on lock screen issue

🔒 Microsoft warned that updates to Windows 11 released since August may make the password sign‑in icon invisible on the lock screen for systems with multiple sign‑in options. The button remains functional — hovering over the blank space reveals the password control. The issue is tied to the non‑security preview KB5064081 and later releases on 24H2/25H2. Microsoft has provided no timeline for a fix and offers no workaround beyond the hover action.
