Just installed 19.04. added a second account for the kids mother to watch netflix on. when I switched users it switched fine to the other account. however when I switched back to the main account (mine) it was like it just signed me out when switching users and did not keep anything open at all. then I checked processes and the other account (kids mothers account) is completely logged out. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825544 Title: Switch User menu item gone after upgrade to Ubuntu 19.04 Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After today's upgrade to Ubuntu 19.04 with GNOME Shell 3.32, the switch user menu is gone, even though org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-user-switching is false To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1825544/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Following up to my remarks from yesterday: when I logged out of my primary account, I DID see a Switch User menu option from my secondary account. When I returned to the primary account, Switch User was not present. But that was yesterday. On reboot today, Switch User has reappeared in my primary account.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1825544] Re: Switch User menu item gone after upgrade to Ubuntu 19.04
I got this problem after upgrading Ubuntu 18.04 to 19.04. My system was initially installed as KUbuntu, later I've installed Cinnamon so it's a mix of many packages. However, I couldn't change user while logging so I needed to use ctrl+alt+F* and start new session as specified user, then start X server. `startx cinnamon` somehow worked, but there were some issues while running, so I've been googling a bit and this is what I've done: - added "Session=cinnamon" to ~/.dmrc - added `exec cinnamon-session` to ~/xinitrc - enabled automatic and timed login like mentioned in https://askubuntu.com/a/1140036 - run `sudo service gdm3 restart` as mentioned in https://askubuntu.com/q/1136457 - disabled automatic and timed login - reboot After that I have logon screen with ability to choose user and I can properly log in. When I try to switch users and login again, I got "could not acquire name on session bus" error, but I can switch to session where I'm still logged in. Hope this will help anybody, but I'm looking forward for proper fix and instructions less random than mine ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825544 Title: Switch User menu item gone after upgrade to Ubuntu 19.04 Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After today's upgrade to Ubuntu 19.04 with GNOME Shell 3.32, the switch user menu is gone, even though org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-user-switching is false To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1825544/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I have the same issue. On my machine I have 2 accounts: and admin account and a regular user account. For the admin - the "Switch User" option never appears.
