  1. "Switch user" option disappeared


    Dear Microsoft,
    since the last windows update, it is difficult to switch user on the PC. The only person that can log in, is the one, that has been signed in last - even after restarting the PC.
    So even though my girlfried used the PC last and shut it off, i won´t be able to log in into my account, before actually logging into her account, singing out and switch the user.

    Otherwise it is impossible for me administrator to log into windows, even after a restart.
    When do you expect to have this bug fixed?
    PC: Lenovo Y540
    Windows: Windows 10 Home

    :)
