Mac login screen icon does not update

My lockscreen/login screen does not update the image for my Apple ID when I update it on system preferences. It updates on my iCloud account on my iPhone but not on Mac. Help please as this is an annoying glitch...

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

I suspect this file, close Sys Prefs, move this file to the desktop & try setting it again...


~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist


~ tilde indicates hidden Local Library

Apple hid the Users' Library folders...


Method 1:

  1. From the Finder, select the Go menu at top of the screen, and choose Go to Folder.
  2. In the window that opens, enter ~/Library, and click Go.
