<title>Switch between users without logging-out</title>
<p>As you can keep different accounts for all the users of the computer, you can switch between them anytime you want without need to log-out. This means that you and all the users can leave and come back to your activities in any minute. </p>
<p>To do this, go to the user menu sited in the superior right side of your screen, and chose <gui>Switch User</gui>. It will appear a box with all the accounts listed for you to choose which one do you prefer.</p>
<p>To choose another or come back to the previous account, you just need to repeat the same.</p>
<note>
<p>
Notice that if you have multiple accounts logged-in at the moment that you are trying to <gui>Shut Down</gui> your computer, you will be logged-out of the current account, so the computer will not get turned off.
