Prevent 'other people using this PC' messages when logging off

When shutting down a Windows 10 computer, you might get messages to indicate that there are 'other people using this PC' (when you know that there aren't).

This is due to a recent Windows 10 update, that causes the computer to sign you in automatically when some updates are installed.

To prevent this from happening:
  • For each user account on the system:
    • Click the Settings icon in the Start menu
    • A Settings window will open:
      • Click on Accounts
      • Select Sign-in options on the left
      • Set Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after an update or restart (under Privacy) to Off
