  1. Can different users accounts run in the background.


    If I’m signed into one user and start to upload a video to YouTube, can I switch to another user and do different stuff and the video still upload? Or do I have to stay on the same user?

    Thank you for any help

  2. Windows 10 Task menu background transparency

    Hi,

    Thank you for your response.

    Apologize for delay in reply.

    As a workaround, I suggest you to change the desktop background/ remove the desktop background and check.

    I suggest you to create a new user account and check if it fixes the issue. Refer to the steps below to create a new User Account:

    • Go to Settings.
    • Choose Accounts and then select Other User Accounts towards the left.
    • Select Add an Account.
    • Enter a user name and hit Next.
    • Click on Finish.
    • Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    • Check if issue persists.

    Please reply to us with the status of the issue.

    Thanks.

    Remove account


    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
      Code:
      net user test /del

    Hi Eric,

    Welcome to Microsoft community and thank you for posting your query.

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you to fix the issue.

    To assist you better, I would like to know are you logged-in using Microsoft account?

    Let’s try simple steps and check if that helps in resolving the issue. I would suggest to convert the current user account to the local user account.

    • Click on Your email and accounts and click on
      Sign-in with a local account instead.

    • Enter the password, click on Next
      and follow the onscreen instruction to convert into local account.
    Once you are done converting to local user account, convert your local user account to Microsoft account. Follow the above steps skip step 3 and click on
    Your email and accounts and click on Sign-in with a Microsoft account instead. Enter the
    password, click on Next and follow the onscreen instruction to convert into Microsoft account.
