Re: Other users



Normally the message means another profile is logged on with Fast User
switching enabled.
As long as the other user does not have something open that has data that
has not yet been saved, there should be no problem.
The worst case is data recently entered may be lost.

It is not really a problem, but to prevent it, log off all users before
restarting.

At times, like reboot or trying to delete a program I get a message
telling me other users are using a program and ask if I wish to continue
closing it. Can anyone tell me what this is about and how to fix it if it
is a problem?
