I have 3 accounts on my PC,my own ( administrator) My Wife and My son. When I
go to switch user the windows message appears saying:
this computer is in use and has been locked.
Only ****/**** or administrator can unlock this computer.
So when I put in my password to unlock it, then go to log off to switch user
the same thing happens again,so they can not access their accounts,please
help.
