Hi,
Is it possible to run Logos from more than one user account, in my same PC with Win 10? If so, how to do it?
Thanks,
Gabe.
For clarification: Are you wanting to run one "logos account" on multiple computer user accounts OR multiple "logos accounts" on one computer user account?
In either case, what is your goal?
Is it possible to run Logos from more than one user account,
To clarify, it is only possible to run Logos from the OS user account in which it is installed.
You can install Logos in multiple OS user accounts in the usual way i.e. login to the user account and install Logos. That way, I can run a Beta version of Logos and the current version on the same machine (using the same Logos account).
If this isn't what you had in mind, please respond as per alabama24's request.
Thanks JT,
To clarify, I would like to run my one Logos account in my one PC, but under my two different users. I have two different user accounts in my Windows 10. I login into either Windows user depending on which type of work I am doing. Currently I run Logos only on one of those two users (let's call it User1), but it could be quite convenient if I don't need to switch users to run Logos when working under User2 account.
I hope I didn't make it even more confusing.

You can't run a single Logos installation from two (or more) OS user accounts. This is deliberate (by design), so you have to install Logos in the User2 account as well as the User1 account.
If you want your work in Logos to be different between the two installations, then use different Layouts and the Program Setting "At Startup..." should be "Most recent layout - local".
An option for both Users is the Logos Web App => https://app.logos.com and Verbum Web App => https://app.verbum.com
If have adequate hardware and appropriate licensing, another option is virtual machines. Host OS could have Logos installed while each work "User" has their own virtual machine (useful configuration when work users need different VPN clients)
One idea is using Logos for User1 and Verbum for User2. Personally use Logos (purchased library account) and Verbum ($ 0.00 demonstration account) at the same time for one "User" operating system account.
Another possibility (untried) is the runas command (allow User2 to run Logos as User1). Caveat: suspect only one User could have Logos open at a time.

These all run the risk of being "unsupported" when problems arise, as well as being technical to implement.
