I
am getting this problem after the fall creators update .It's happening sometimes when I click shut down or restart a message pops up, it says
someone else is using my pc, I do have another user in my pc but
that user is not in use when I am getting that massage. I also clean installed my OS but the problem is still there. The Microsoft support staff also failed to sort out the problem. I am adding
a photo of the message.
Its very unfortunate that after so many cumulative updates and even one major update version 1803 MS still did not fixed this issue, as if they are unaware of this.

I used this and it fixed the issue:
Open the Settings app and go to Accounts > Sign-in Options. Scroll to the bottom until you reach the Privacy section and UNSELECT the option to "Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after an update or restart." Do this for EVERY account on your PC.
Hopefully it helps you as well.

Step 4: Go back to a previous build, doesn't exist. Only keep my files, and remove everything.
Why is this missing. Why is there no create system image backup option in win10.
Why have these latest win10 updates not updated?
I only have one account and I just started getting the message. Windows won't even let me revert to a previous version.
Hi thanks for replying. Yes I am using Microsoft account to login my pc, and I am not getting any message like someone get into my account but still as a precaution I changed my password, but the problem is still there, and I can login to my Microsoft account
from another pc.
Could it be that you are also using a gaming device (Xbos, Playstation etc) with the same log in password. That is a possibility . Am I right ?
No, no gaming device. This a work computer.
