By connecting many input/output devices to the same computer, every user will have
his/her own terminal and file directories. Multi-user systems require more security
procedures in order to perform accordingly, and this is usually done by using
passwords to restrict certain areas to certain users

∙ 13y agoIt depends on... If you are planning to use for a number of users who are going to use in different time with interfering with each other. Yes you can do that. If you want to use Windows Xp as a mainframe OS (when multiple users work in the same time with same OS), no you can't do.

Is window 98 multi user or single user?
When Windows 98 was released it functioned as a single user multi task operating system. If a user can run multiple applications at the same time where applications are called tasks, such an operating system is called a multitasking operating system. If a user can only run one application at a time, the corresponding operating system is called a single-tasking operating system. Modern operating systems belong to a multi-user operating system, that is, the same machine can establish their own accounts for multiple users, and users with these accounts are also allowed to log in to this computer at the same time. This involves the management of computer users and resources. In simple words, users can create multiple users on one computer, and if a computer can only use one user, it is called a single user. Windows 98 is a consumer-oriented operating system developed by Microsoft as part of its Windows 9x family of Microsoft Windows operating systems. The second operating system in the 9x line, it is the successor to Windows 95. Like its predecessor, it is a hybrid 16-bit and 32-bit monolithic product with the boot stage based on MS-DOS. Windows 98 is a web-integrated operating system that bears numerous similarities to its predecessor. Most of its improvements were cosmetic or designed to improve the user experience, but there were also a handful of features introduced to enhance system functionality and capabilities, including improved USB support and accessibility, as well as support for hardware advancements such as DVD players. Windows 98 was the first edition of Windows to adopt the Windows Driver Model, and introduced features that would become standard in future generations of Windows, such as Disk Cleanup, Windows Update, multi-monitor support, and internet Connection Sharing Microsoft had marketed Windows 98 as a "tune-up" to Windows 95, rather than an entirely improved next generation of Windows. Upon release, it was generally well-received for its web-integrated interface and ease of use, as well as its addressing of issues present in Windows 95, although some pointed out that it was not significantly more stable than its predecessor. Windows prior to Windows 98 operating system used to be single user single task type. Windows 3.1 and Windows 95 were single user single task operating system. Only one application window was running the thread in the background for those operating systems. Windows 2000 was the first Windows to bring multi user multi task type to OS. And Windows ME was a single user multi task like Windows 98 but with more networking support. After Windows XP onwards, the operating system was capable of being a server and allowed multi-user multi-tasks. Now every release of Windows is multi-user and multi-tasking. Considering Windows has its own platform and now they are not releasing the single user operating system anymore.
