Since upgrading to Ventura I restarted my iMac and got "name" and "password" instead of usual User Accounts window. Mac won't take any of my combinations of name and passwords I use! How do I solve this?

iMac Pro, macOS 13.0

I'm unsure why your Mac changed the login process after upgrading. mine didn't.

but to get back to where you only need to enter your password, instead of username and password, go to System Settings > Lock Screen and change login window shows from "name and password" to "list of users".

That was my problem, I chose at some stage of the installation option "name and password" rather than "List of users". After restarting I got login window with only option of Name and Password, which I could not figure out. Hence I can't reach Settings to change anything, because I can't simply login to my Mac.

Since the time of asking I solved my problem. Command-R and there I was presented the option to login through several of my user accounts. I got in and fixed the issue. Luckily my old password worked fine.

If you forgot your Mac login password

Upgrading to Ventura has ZERO effect on your current logins and passwords, there is something missing in your post that would help us help you. Until then reset your login passwords using the link above.
