I don’t understand what you mean. Adding a user to what and how? Where does this icon appear? Could you elaborate, or show a picture?

when I first turn on the computer I see 2 icons before, after your method, one says diskpassword one says guest. I click diskpassword enter and it brings me to the login page where I have to enter username and password.

now I'm trying to add a user to the computer but instead of being a discreet login it has created an login icon on the first page I see does that make sense?

Thanks !
 
I'm basically trying to thwart *******s at customs who think it's ok to go through your computer this way I can just go into a dummy account, not that I have anything to hide, I just think it's offensive and invasive so they can go look at an empty account

I have never used it but VeraCrypt has plausible deniability encryption. Espionage too (another app).

Can you type the following commands and tell me the results?
Code:
sudo fdesetup status
sudo fdesetup list


It may be that FileVault returns to its standard behaviour once you start adding users again.
