Actually, as long as you could control Fast User Switching feature enabled or disabled in Windows 10, you could change the user account whenever you want. Tips: Fast User Switching feature in Windows 10 could allow users to login to a PC while keeping other users logged in and their applications running.
Expand the left pane and in the right side pane, double click the " Hide entry points for Fast User Switching ". Open Run dialog box and type " regedit " in the box. You are likely to encounter an error if you try to switch to a session using a blank password. This is due to the Local Security Policy setting Accounts: Limit local account use of blank passwords to console logon only under the Security Options section of Local Policies.
This error applies even if the current session is on the console. Windows XP does not suffer from this restriction. The solution is to disable the setting, however this will allow blank password accounts to be used for network and Terminal Services logons that would not have been possible before.
Hence you should consider adding such accounts to the Deny access to this computer from the network and the Deny logon through Terminal Services settings within the User Rights Assignment section of Local Policies. To deny account access you can get the ntrights. By default only computer administrators are allowed to switch directly to another account with the result that once switched to a limited account you would need to disconnect to the logon screen in order to switch to another user.
To allow unrestricted switching there is a Use administrator privileges for switching option within the DUST control panel applet. When selected the DUST programs under each logon session run under the Local Service account with the Administrator group and privileges granted to it, thus allowing every user to switch.
For maximum security the program impersonates the logged on user except when performing an operation that requires administrator privileges. This option is enabled by default for all operating systems. Disable the option to have the DUST programs run as the logged on user elevated where possible and thus restrict which users can switch. It is possible to allow specific limited users to switch through the System Control Panel by selecting the Remote tab and then adding the users via Select Remote Users.
For advanced operators this is equivalent to adding the user to the Remote Desktop Users group. It is now possible to invoke the switching functionality via a command line tool that allows you to create your own icons or tasks. The tool called DUSTcmd. Thus any prompting for passwords or displaying of errors will be via the usual graphical interface. The difference between the two is the privilege level of the tool versus the DUST client. For security reasons the tool will only communicate with the DUST client if it is run as the user of the session.
As with all DUST settings there is a system default value and possibly an override at the user level. Otherwise "enable" does nothing if the system default is enabled already and "disable" just reverts to the system default. The main commands not administration commands can be invoked without generating a console window through use of rundll32 via the following syntax "rundll32 DUST.
InstallShield silent installs are supported through the normal syntax and can be used via the downloaded PackageForTheWeb installer with initial options of "-s -a". Hence to record an installation use the command "dust Then to perform the silent install invoke the command "dust Please be aware that actions taken as a result of prompts within the control panel applet are not performed during the silent install. It is possible to hand edit the setup.
This is the only line that can be changed in this way. When upgrading the operating system, the existing install will adapt itself to the new environment. However there may be specific installation steps for the new operating system that will not have been performed, resulting in reduced functionality.
Hence to get the best support, it is recommended that you check for a later version of DUST and upgrade if available, otherwise re-run the current setup program and choose the Repair option.
Direct switching is possible through the Users tab of Windows Task Manager by right clicking a disconnected user and selecting Connect. However this does not support saved passwords and always attempts to connect using an empty password. This can be useful but also harmful if there is a bad password limit in force. In addition to this being much slower and less convenient it also means each session ends up having an open task manager on the desktop.
Torolol Posted January 14, To enable Fast User Switching: Log on to the computer as an administrator. Click Change the way users log on or off. If it is not already selected, click to select the Use the Welcome screen check box. Oh well, i'm upgrading to Windows 7 soon anyway which i believe allows it.
But its clearly greyed out on my windows 7, domain member work machine. Martog Posted January 19, Posted January 19,
