One of the great functionalists windows has been offering for long is multi-user login. Different people can share the same PC with their own flair along with a guest user login. But, I am not sure, if this feature is available on Windows 8 or not. I have read many posts, articles but no where find anything related to this feature.
Is the feature missing, or restrained on Windows 8 due to which no one is talking about it.
Answer
The guest account can indeed be enabled, as can be seen in the following guide from forum.technical-assistance.co.uk:
By default the guest account in Windows 8 is turned off.
To activate
it is much the same as Windows 7, just getting there is a little
different.
Open the Control Panel by typing Control on a blank part of the Start
screen and pressing Enter,
In Category view click on Add or remove user accounts.
You will see the Guest account and the fact that it is turned off,
double click on it.
Click on 'Turn On' and its activated, close the Control panel and log
off or reboot to test your Guest account if you wish.
The next time you Start your machine or logoff you will be given the
option to log onto the Guest account or your normal account.
To turn it off again log in with your account. Navigate back to the
User accounts as per above. Click on the 'Guest' account image and
you will be given the option to turn it off.
