Auto "Switch User" after x min Idle time on XP

fester · 2005-03-25 17:17:50

So, it;s a long shot but: Does anyone know a way to automatically "Switch User" after x min Idle time on XP. On NT it can lock the workstation after 10 min Idle time... so, should be possible on XP too?!? Alternatively: What programming language do i need to learn to extend XPs functionality :/

I only know how to go back to the welcome screen after a certain amount of time. Would that help?

Think it does it if you select the "on resume, password protect" for your screensaver.

It all begs the question ... why do people beg questions?

Or, just, why?
