  1. Signed-in multiple times as a sole user?


    Something strange happened, while I'm the sole and only user of this PC, the sign-in info site of MS says otherwise... It didn't happen before but can it be a strange bug? (I only have just 1 account)


    Signed-in multiple times as a sole user? [​IMG]


    But my PC runs just fine... just the multiple-signins-at-once-when-I-check-on-it worries me... (already did virus check with MBAM/Hitman Pro and both found nothing out of the ordinary...)

    Just a glitch or worrisome...

    Oh yes, deleted my email address, you never know huh?

    adminstrator rights as sole user

    Why am I told I do not have administrator rights and thus cannot open desktop downloads, move files etc.? I am sole user of this newly bought PC using Windows 10 and Outlook 365. Please can you give me a step by step idiot's guide to solving this silly
    problem? This is a domestic, single user PC. Thank you.

    Multiple Users Signed In at One Time


    I've loaded Windows 10 in a VM running on Windows 8.1. I've created multiple user but can't seem to figure out how to sign into a second account while still signed in to the first account. In Windows 8.1 this was easy!

    Sorry for the (maybe) dumb question.

    Sign In error

    We appreciate your response. For further troubleshooting, we suggest that you create a test user profile. This is for us to verify if the issue is isolated with one user profile or with multiple accounts.

    To create a test user profile, follow these steps:

    • Using Cortana search, type Settings and then hit the Enter key.
    • In the Settings window, select Accounts.
    • Select Family & other people.
    • Choose Add someone else to this PC.
    • Click I don't have this person's sign-in information.
    • Click Add a user without a Microsoft account.
    • Name the user as TEST and then provide a password.

    Update us about the results.
