Windows 10: method to sign out of all user profiles in one click

Currently have multiple user profiles and have to log into each one and sign out before shutting the PC down.

could a batch file be created to sign out of all user profiles from any or one particular one...?

thanks

Signing out of Xbox Live on Windows 10 PC

I have 2 user profiles I use with Xbox Live.

To change from one profile to other, I open the Xbox app, click on Settings and then select Sign out.

I am then presented with a button to Sign In.

Click on this and I am signed in again with the same profile but the message box has an option to sign in using a different account. Click on this and select the account you want to use from the list presented and you are then signed in to the other account.

However, I have a Windows tablet and often when I click to Sign Out nothing happens and I am not able to sign out. I have to reboot the tablet to get the click on the Sign Out to be recognised.

Clicking on the other options on the Settings page all work as intended eg Network, link to Facebook account

Anyone else with the same problem?

 

New User Profiles auto sign out after trying to sign in WINDOWS 10

well microsoft! what is the bloody answer?

 

Hello reddwarf, *Smile

When you shut down the computer, it will automatically sign out all users, but will prompt you to confirm first when other users are still signed in.

If you like, you could create a shortcut using the command below from OPTION EIGHT in the tutorial below to force a full immediate shut down.

shutdown /s /f /t 0

Shut Down Computer in Windows 10

 

so when I go to shut down and get reminded other users are signs in, and I accept the shutdown will,user data be lost....I think some programs were pinned by a user and the changes were lost, does this make sense

thanks

 

If they have anything open that wasn't saved, it will be lost.

 

I accept documents etc opened but how about changes to programs pinned to start menu, should these be lost

thanks

 

No. Those will not be affected.

 

No. When you pin a program to the taskbar that change is saved.

You will lose changes to documents that haven't been saved and settings changes you haven't saved (anywhere there is an "Apply" button).

Edge will open with the same pages as when you signed them off, IE will not - I'm not sure about other browsers.

You can also sign off users through the "Users" tab on task manager if you want.

 

Task manager seems a good way, will have a look.

PS the copy all folders to new profile except three DAT files is in Microsoft guide for fixing corrupt user profiles.

will see what happens after the copy, if installed apps show in programs menu and all else is stable will continue with other folders, if not will restore from acronis image again and start user profile from scratch, or do Windows install cleanup, or do a clean install.....

thanks for for all your help
