Logged in, but the wrong account

RasmusMarkussen
Everytime I log in to Zotero on my homecomputer it is still my girlfriends account that opens with the icon down in the right corner.

Does anyone know how I can get to my own account / remove hers?

Thanks in advance!

    When you say "log in to Zotero" do you mean at zotero.org?

    Zotero.org login is independent of Zotero sync settings in the Zotero application. If you want to be able to access two independent Zotero libraries on the same computer, you can:
    • Use different accounts on you operating system.

    • Use Zotero Standalone with one account and Zotero for Firefox with the other

    • Use Firefox profiles

    Yes, I log into my account on Zotero.org, but it is still the wrong library that opens on the icon bottom right.

    I suppose I will have to find out how we can use two different profiles on the same PC.

    Thanks!

    your options are listed above. Again zotero.org login has nothing to do with what library you see in Zotero on your computer.

    Since you are using Firefox already, it would probably be easiest to use Zotero Standalone for your other account. After installing it, when prompted if you want Zotero Standalone to use your existing data directory, choose No. You will also want to use a different browser to import items into Zotero Standalone.
