This function requests that the Windows Vista SideShow module change the current user. This function returns immediately after the request has been sent to the Windows Vista computer, but the change does not take affect until the computer acts on it and sends a SHELLMSG_USER_CHANGED message to your application. This function should be used instead of the SideShowMgr_UserChangeRequest function. A list of available user names can be obtained by using the SideShowMgr_GetAvailableUserNames function.
