Remote desktop, does user get control back?

0

I'm curious if I log in remotely to a computer and it asks if I still want to log in even if the other user will get logged out will he/she automatically get logged in once I'm done?

2No; They will have to log into their account because they logged out to allow you to log into your account. – Ramhound – 2015-06-23T11:46:05.677

That user is still technically logged in; their running tasks will still continue, but when you close your remote session they will still see the users' login page & have to re-enter credentials to get back into their desktop.

As far as I'm aware there is no real indication of when you left the session.

This is based on my usual procedure of logging in with that user's credentials & leaving without logging out, by simply closing my current session.
