Get the error - Cannot join world the account you are signed in to is currently playing in this world on a different device - on LAN

My wife was logged in to her windows account on my pc, then I switched to my account and she tried to join from another pc and got this error message. It only happens on the world she played on on my pc; she's able to join other worlds and the Realm just fine.

Not LAN, but trying to connect to a server with 0/20 users online, it gives the same error (see video).   Happened after I tried logging in and waited a very long time before nothing happened and I closed the app.  Then trying to log back in I got the error.  Nothing weird about how I logged off last time.

The server's on 1.14.1; trying to login via android or Windows 10 doesn't matter, seems to be tied to my account.  This issue has happened on every major release since 1.12.0 for me.  I've been playing with the 1.14.30 install on this server for several days and it was fine.

I believe the server admin needs to boot me to get me back in, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

 

I know this isn't for features/functions, but it'd be really great if there was a way to force-logout of any "open" instances you're in... or at least a time-out for inactivity.

 

edit: I had more to say

edit2: one more thing...
