I use two accounts; the first, is a Computer Administrator account. The
second, is a hidden Computer Administrator account. Logging on to the second
account by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del twice, I can initiate Fast User Switching by
clicking Start, Log Off, and then Switch Users. Once I return to the Welcome
Screen, I cannot access the second account again unless I select "Connect" in
the Task Manager of my first account—this is due to the fact that the classic
Windows Logon prompt does not respond while using Fast User Switching. Is
there any way to work around this, and to re-access the hidden account while
it is logged on but inactive?
 
Go to Control Panel, User Accounts, select Change the way user log on and
off, and uncheck Welcome Screen.
