I have seen that lock screen button does not appear in right top bar options.

Apparently, no problems on news user, only on the user created from the installer.

This issue is maintained after some upgrades in the default user.

@EchedeyLR Do I understand you correctly that this issue is solved by now?

I am not participating here since almost 2 years already.

However, I forgot to check if I could disable or remove my account.

The problem was solved with that solution but I am sure that the behaviour was in a default installation and expected to be documented or double checked.
