I use only Family Sharing for this. I don't know about any other way.

Big Picture Mode does not ask for passwords. You can just switch between users as long as they have logged in at least once.

Pretty sure it's everything. I often switch to BPM, switch user, then exit BPM so it's just like I am logged in as the other account.

Well, it's a VM only for gaming and the multiple accounts are for the kids. So I think it's pretty low risk!

do u think its safe and is it normal steam politics?

This is how SteamOS works. It logs you into Big Picture Mode and then you switch between users - no passwords necessary once first logged in. I use a user account specifically for Steam, so no concern about 'multiple gamers' on one user account.

It does ask for password, if you uncheck "remember be" tickbox when logging in.
Source: I have a SteamOS machine that boots into big picture mode with three accounts, my kids just log in and play the games in family view, while mine is password-protected.
Unless maybe it works differently on Windows, though I'm not sure why it would.

Are you sure about need to exit? On Linux, if I want to switch accounts I just go into BPM, log off the current user and select another.

imagine your little kid log in to your account and use cheats (kids dont understand difference of fairplay and cheating) and u ll get VAC
or one of your friends want to trick with u - they will bue game and send to himselves
this will be not happy

You want to share your account with the internet cafe? Why you should do that? Its easier you post your accout password here, thats the same you try to do.

people often do this when want to sell some rare ingame stuff for real money

But you know the computers are open for all. You can never been sure if its safe or not. Maybe there is a keylogger installed?

Have you reported this bug to steam? I mean they're the ones that should care about this, not us.
Personally I don't have a problem with it, if you trust someone enough to log in to steam on their computer (presumably to use family sharing) then you should trust them enough that they won't do anything bad with your account.

if u have pc with lots of users on same windows profile, like big family or hostel or dermitory or internet cafe or somethis else
steam gives u possibility to use all accounts on this pc without knowing log/pas and autentificator
ok, if u all find answer so fast (big picture mode)
do u think It is right, so it should be?
how about your personal data, danger of loosing money or stuff, get vac?
