Windows 7 User Switching Question when locked?

So this is what I want to know so basically I have noticed that when I lock the computer either by going to start menu and hovering over the arrow next to where it says shut down and choosing lock or by doing Ctrl-Alt-Delete and select Lock this computer

so anyways after its locked it displays the user account that you locked it with and then typing in your password to get back in and I have noticed that below where you type in your password is the Switch User button and clicking it acts as if you have chosen Switch User instead and if there is only one user account on the computer it just show the account logged in and you just type in your password from there

but my question is about the Switch User button being there with the computer locked so the thing is on my computer I only have one user account on it and its an Administrator account the main Administrator account is currently disabled and the Guest account is turned off I never even mess with it so my question is when I lock the computer why does it display the Switch User button when my account is the only on the computer? (that is with the main Admin account Disabled and with Guest account turned off)

  • Dont worry. That option is always present whether you have any other account or not. You can call it a windows bug.

    Chill.
