Fast user switching used to work on our XP Home system, but now it does not. When logging off, the button appears, but nothing happens when I click. 'Start-L' locks the computer. I check the setting for user accounts, but each time I go back it is turned off again. I checked the offline files stuff and it's fine.

There was a similar thread with no conclusion:

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the hint BMR777. The service was deactivated, so now I activated, set to automatic, but it won't start. Error message 1058, roughly translated from the German: "the service can not be started. It is deactivated or not connected to to activated hardware"

Any more ideas? I think you are pointing me the right way
