Switching users in Workstation 16

The answer is no doubt right there in front of me, but I am not seeing it:

I have three users set up, Visitor, Me, and Administrator.  But I see no way if I am logged in as Me, to switch to either of the other two accounts -- no log out / log in option.

How do I do that?

Can you elaborate on what this has to do with VMware Workstation?

I set up three users in a Windows 11 VM, Main, Administrator, and Visitor..  What I want to be able to do is to switch between them, or at the least be able to choose which user to log in with when I start up the VM.

On the start icon -> right click -> "Shut down or sign out" ---> choose sign out

In the start menu -> right click on the user icon -> sign out

Change on login -> this is me guessing -> right click on the power options -> sign-in options (might have to click around a bit there)
