I’ve a MacBook Pro M1 which is updated to the most latest Ventura 13.2 macOS.Upon turning on the system, I don’t get to see the my display pic and login credentials.I’ve to manually key the user name and password to login.I tried creating a new user with admin rights and also turning on/off the automatically login as but still doesn’t help.I’ve not trying backup/restore yet! Has anyone faced this issue or can suggest a workaround?

Give this a try: boot into Safe Mode according to How to use safe mode on your Mac and test to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.


NOTE 1: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following; 

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed

• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)

• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically

• Disables user-installed fonts 

• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files


NOTE 2: if you have a wireless keyboard with rechargeable batteries connect it with its charging cable before booting into Safe Mode. This makes it act as a wired keyboard as will insure a successful boot into Safe Mode.
