    Somebody else is logged in at shutdown


    Since a week or two back I have started to get a popup that someone else is logged on when I am about to shut down the computer. This is a bit scary. Has anyone else also got this experience?

    Hello jockep, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)

    When this happens, you can cancel shutdown, and use Option 5 in the tutorial below to see what accounts are showing as currently still signed in.
