How to auto-login for multiple users when starting a computer in windows 7?

Question

Windows

There is a computer with windows 7, which is made like a "kiosk", standing separately in a public place. Now it has autologin configured for one user. But it was necessary to run additional tasks, such as data exchange and archiving, so that the windows of these programs would not be visible on the console screen (the user under which the autologin was performed). The option with different window "hiders" did not fit. At the moment, "background" programs are run manually from under a different user.
Question: is it possible to make it so that when the computer is turned on, auto-login occurs for 2 users in windows 7? Those. as if, when we turned on the computer, we logged in under the first user, then clicked "change user" and logged in under the second.

How to autologin multiple users on computer startup

It is impossible in principle!
If you do not have a terminal server, then only one person at a time can work with a computer.
It is limited both technically and licensed.
Moreover, it is not clear why this is necessary for a kiosk.

So who's stopping you from running them under a different user? You can simultaneously run programs from at least hundreds of users.
run asand task scheduler to help you.

maksimnovgorodov85 that's why such background things are often done with the help of services - to run separately, regardless of the user (whether he logged in or not). In fact, everything that works constantly and does not require interactive interaction fits the criterion of a system service. See if your software can be wrapped in a service launcher. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/137890/en . Another option (often discussed on the toaster, look) is to run tasks through the Windows scheduler. There you can also specify what to run, under which user, and a very rich set of methods for scheduling the launch.
