Logging on as a new user

You can use the following procedure to log on as a new user.

To log on as a new user

  • Expand File > Login as New User (Windows). This option is only available on computers that are configured for access control. It is useful to employ the concept of operating with least privileges and an individual needs to switch to using an account with greater privilege.
