    Hi all,

    I'm running Windows XP pro on my thinkpad and I'm trying to enable fast user switching. However, when I go into "change the way users log on or off," it is grayed out and a dialog box comes up saying that a

    'recently installed program has disabled the welcome screen and fast user switching, To restore these features, you must uninstall the program. The following file name might help you identify the program that made the change: vrlogon.dll'

    Through some googling, i saw some mention that it may have to do with the fingerprint software. Does anyone have an idea of what course of action to take in order to correct this? Thanks in advance

    Craig

    Uninstall the fingerprint software and fast user switching will work. However it is not worth it IMO. Why is FUS so important anyways?

    If you use Protector Suit QL, Open the Control Centre, Select "settings" then "System Settings" In the Logon tab, tick "Enable Fast user switching support". You may need to restart your computer upon doing so.
    This is how i fixed my computer.
