Even though I have "Display login window as list of users" ticked in Login Options, when I reboot I still seem to get asked for a username and password, not just the password from a list of user bubbles. Whilst not a big issue normally, this is on a MacBook with a busted screen so only works with an external monitor and it seems not to turn on the external monitor either sometimes so a right pain in the bum.

Thoughts?
 
seen issues in where Tick boxes get into a odd state.

Try the following
Unlock The menu with Lock Icon
Switch the option to the opposite to what you want
Lock the menu with the lock icon
Unlock the menu with the lock icon
Switch the option to what you want
Lock the menu with the lock icon

This should reset the .plist for this menu item. It sounds dumb but fixed issues like for me in the past
