Profile pic same in two users - Monterey

I just upgraded to Monterey. I have two user profiles, with different passwords, but every time I change the profile picture on one user it also changes the other one to that picture.


Both profiles are mine - one personal, one work - associated with the same Apple ID - is that the problem? Never had a problem doing this in previous OS's.


Appreciate any suggestions, TIA.

Really, that's awful. How difficult is it to allow a separate picture? And, it's not like they'll let us have two IDs. What are work-for-ourselves people supposed to do? Technology promises more and more while delivering less and less these days. :-(


Thank you for responding. At least now I'll stop intermittently trying, thinking it's a bug that will fix itself. Such a bummer.
