So recently I updated Windows 11 to its latest 22H2 Version. I noticed that in the properties section of my C Drive, also in the security tab there is a user named "Account Unknown(S-1-15-3-65536-1888954469-739942743-1668119174-2468466756-4239452838-1296943325-355587736-700089176)

Now, my question is, is this user is associated with current version of windows? Because if I want to delete it, warning dialog occurs. And if this is any other problem, then how can I solve this?

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Windows update

    While it has good information, the only problem with that article (ICYMI... dated 02/23/2023!!!) is that it applies to "Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 10 - all editions" without any mention of Windows 11... hunh?!?!?

    You know, it might be a good idea to consider using a more appropriate name like "Microsoft Secure Account." I mean, it does seem a bit strange that the icon itself has a question mark. Without any clear explanation, it could easily be mistaken for a suspicious account. It's always better to provide some clarity and avoid any unnecessary doubts or concerns, don't you think?

    Yeah, I had exactly the same concern. I was on the verge of deleting this unknown account when I thought, "Self...... eh, maybe not so much?"

    How would you delete something that does not exist?
