Switching Users

[Sparrowlord]

Hi,

I'm trying to switch users in my script, but I can't figure out how. I'm using windows 7.

I tried sending the left windows key and L and all that did was bring up the start menu and type L.

How to switch user?

Thanks.

Ive no idea how to do that, and Im not sure why you need it, but maybe

RunAs()

function might help you.

I might not of been searching hard enough, but I can't find anything with RunAs() to help me switch users.

It dosent physically switch the user, but it will run an application as another user.

That's not exactly what I'm trying to accomplish. I'm trying to create a script that will switch users, to take me back to the windows login screen, but not completely log me out.

I have seen a dllcall for this but I cannot remember where

maybe this will help you

WinClose("Program Manager")

Figured there would be a sure-fire quick way to do this..

DllCall("User32.dll", "int", "LockWorkStation")
