| | Logging off a secondary User This is probably an easy question but I could not find this anywhere. If I am logged on after a standard user's time is over (set through parental controls) how can I log that user off without changing their time, logging in as them, logging them off, logging back in as an admin, then changing the controls back? Seems there should be a way to log off a user form the admin side... TIA |

| | Re: Logging off a secondary User It works if you click "Show processes from all users" (in the Processes tab) and continue the UAC prompt. Or, launch Taskmgr.exe from an elevated Command Prompt. -- Regards, Ramesh Srinivasan, Microsoft MVP [Windows Shell/User] Windows® Troubleshooting http://www.winhelponline.com "John C Harris" <edit@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:CBD1035E-A5FF-4D78-9853-722B5C71999A@microsoft.com...
