I need only the number of users logged in Windows. The state can be active / disconnected / inactive / signed out etc , doesn't matter.

Command qwinsta shows details of users currently on the system.

I know in Linux its who which displays all the users on the network.
I need a similar thing which returns the number of users.

What I have tried:

I was just able to get the name of the current active user with

C#

QueryComputerSystem("username");

I asked the google gods: How do I get the number of logged in windows users with C#?[^] - the exact same question that you asked here.

...and found this within seconds: c# - How can I get a list Local Windows Users (Only the Users that appear in the windows Logon Screen) - Stack Overflow[^]
