When the closure of XP, get a message another user is connected

Original title: MESSAGE when the SHUTDOWN of WINDOWS XP.

Regularly during the shut down of my XP system, the following message appears.

WINDOWS - OTHER PEOPLE HAVE LOGGED ON TO THIS COMPUTER. CLOSURE COULD LEAD TO DATA LOSS. YOU STILL WANT TO CLOSE?  ANSWER YES OR NO REQUIRED.        My question is - should I worry? What does that mean?

Hi CliffRider,

Welcome to the Microsoft community.

This happens usually when it is used users switch on a computer with multiple user accounts. You switch to another user, leaving the other user remains connected and then when you logoff you are warned about this.

If this user has files open, changes that have been made but not saved will be lost, if you continue the closure. Return to this user and save open documents before shutting down.

Another way to avoid this message is the user to logoff instead of the switch.

I hope this helps. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.
