How can I activate the fast user switching once its off on vista home

don't know what I did to turn it off, not 'the only administrator' and can not find where to turn?

fredieu416,
Fast user switching is incorporated with Vista.  When you click Start and go to the arrow next to the lock button, you should see the option to switch to the user.  Is there something that does not work right now with the settings of the user?

  • Why the fast user switching and the new Windows Search use the Terminal Services?

    Recently, I was struck by a piece of really bad, malicious malware that totally trashed my operating system.  Therefore, as I rebuild my system, I am applying the appropriate safety precautions.  Among the recommendations of Microsoft is to reduce your footprint of security by disabling unnecessary services.  One of these services that I thought I didn't need was Terminal Server services, since it is a way for a person to get to my machine remotely.

    It turns out that, however, other services that I want to use, such as Fast user Switching and window new search utility, depend on the Terminal Server Services.  It makes no sense to me from a safety point of view.  This seems to be a bad design decision, because security trumps utility.

    If Microsoft is listening, I would like to know why you made this decision and you have changed in Windows 7?

    Second, is there a way to always have the Terminal services Server running and at the same time cut access remotely through this service?

    I don't know about the 'new' Windows Search, but what about the fast user switching you ask to run several sessions of Windows when you switch between users (a session for each user connected) and the only way that Windows can do is to act as a quasi Terminal Server, it needs Terminal Server services to run multiple sessions.

  • Cannot use the fast user switching.

    Me and my partner to use a laptop running Windows XP Home Edition. Up until recently, I was always able to use the fast changing users to switch between myself and my partner (the two administrator) accounts. Since installing AGV PC Tune up, WAS not worked and we both close completely to change username. This takes time and obviously becomes a pain in the rear. Anyone got any ideas?

  • How can I activate the AHCI on a Studio 540?

    Hello I recently upgraded my pc to an OCZ Vertex 3 240 GB ssd hard drive and moved my old HDD as a secondary for the storage of music, pictures and video files. I read that using the SSD in AHCI mode will further improve the performance of the disk. My question is how can I activate the AHCI in bios dell. the only im options given are SATA and RAID. Is it possible to run AHCI? Any help is appreciated. I have better than average knowledge with pc, s but far from an expert. Thank you

    If your bios allows, you can find passage to the raid (even if you have only a single boot drive) can put you in ahci mode. Before making the change in the bios, you will have to do some registry tweaks like just change the bios setting you will get a bsod when you start.

    To enable switching between RAID/AHCI/IDE mode, you will need to change the values 'Start' in these key 0

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci\Start

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pciide\Start

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\iaStorV\Start

    Once you make these changes, restart and set AHCI/raid in BIOS, save the changes and then restart.

  • Cisco ISE and the fast user switching

    Greetings,

    In our deployment, we are interested in using the "fast user switching" which lies in the functionality of Windows.   After searching for a while, I see that the native Windows supplicant is not compatible with the fast user switching.   It does not appear that Anyconnect is either.   Can you please inform me as to what suppluicant, I need research to enable the functionality of Switchign user?

    We currently use ISE 1.2 Patch 4.

    Thank you for any assistance.

    David

    Cisco EHT NAC Agent does not support Windows fast user change when you use the native supplicant. This is because there is not clearly the older user disconnecting. When a new user is sent, the Agent is hung on the ID process and the old user session and therefore a new posture cannot take place. According to Microsoft Security policy, it is recommended to disable the fast user switching.

  • How can I activate the Japanese hyphenation in the English version of InDesign CC 2014?

    How can I activate the Japanese hyphenation in the English version of InDesign CC 2014?

    Japanese hyphenation is also called Kinsoku Shori.

    Thank you in advance!

    You must install the Japanese version.

    You do not need to uninstall your version, but you can install additional your Japanese features:

    Go to the application of CC, under the symbol of gear you get preferences, you can change the language of your programs. Change it to Japanese. Installing InDesign now. It will install additional plugins for that language (it is valid for any other language system there too, but do not install all the languages that there are certain incompatibilities, if all are installed on the same computer). You can switch back to your language later.

    From now on, you will find additional features for this language.

    How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal. I am a novice. Thank you very much.

    1. Please select from the menu bar Terminal

    ▹ terminal preferences... ▹ Profiles ▹ Shell

    If the run command box is checked, uncheck it or enter the command to run automatically (if any), each opening of a Terminal window. Note: this is not how you define a default shell.

    2. If step 1 does not resolve the problem, see below.

    Back up all data.

    Select

    New Shell command ▹

    in the Terminal menu bar. Uncheck the box marked

    Run the command inside a shell

    If it is enabled.

    Copy and paste the following line into the text box that appears, and then press return:

    /bin/mkdir disabled_shell_files

    Close the Terminal window that opens. Repeat with this line:

    /bin/mv .profile .bash_history .bash_profile .bashrc .inputrc disabled_shell_files

    History Shell and former initialization files will be saved in a directory named "disabled_shell_files" at the top level of your home directory. It is normal that some of these files do not exist, and therefore, you will get error "no file".

    Close the window and open a new test.

    You may already know that files with name starting in '. ' are not visible in the Finder by default. So, if you open the folder that you created in the Finder, it will appear as empty, even if it is not. If you need to recover a portion of the data in the files of the shell, use a shell such as nano-based text editor (1). Make sure that you're not recreating the problem. Otherwise, you can delete the folder.
