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

    Thank you for the correction, Jar J Binks (Wrong. “feature SIDs” are shown as Unknowns, but you can't say, either an Unknown is a “feature SID” or not, even if it looks like a “feature SID”. Even if it is a “feature SID”, you cant figure out what feature is it, where it came from, you cant figure out that you need a “feature” and cant control “feature”. That is a problem, not the “feature SIDs” by itself.), it is important to always try to be as clear as possible, in the SIDs in question I only hypothesized that it could be associated with Nvidia, however I want to be clearer still, correct me if I'm wrong:

    Each part of the SID has a specific meaning:

    S-1: The constant prefix indicating that this is a security SID.

    15: Identifies the revision level of the SID.

    3: Identify the security authority.

    The other numbers represent the unique identities assigned to the specific security object.

    The SID in question

    (S-1-15-3-65536-1888954469-739942743-1668119174-2468466756-4239452838-1296943325-355587736-700089176), seems to be a randomly generated SID, I didn't find any clues about it, however, I think not it's a good idea to delete it without knowing what it is exactly, support has asked for feedback on this SID, it seems like a good start, then.

    It seems like a good thing to see who the real users and administrators of the PC are, you can do a further check by typing in the search bar: "netplwiz" without quotes obviously, check if that user appears there...

    I emphasize once again, It is very important to send your feedback about this account using the feedback tool/app on this link >

    The request to send feedback about this unknown account was made by an operator named Napoleon from Microsoft support. Give feedback It's important! Even a journey of a thousand miles always begins with the first step.

    Ahoj Imran, já jsem Dave,

    pomůžu ti s tím.

    Windows vytváří skryté bezpečnostní účty na pozadí operačního systému, všechny začínají na S-1-15-XXXX, všechny systémy Windows mají tyto účty, používají se pro administrativní úkoly, jako je zabezpečení systému Windows, instalace aktualizací, správa souborů ... atd. Tyto účty jsou normální a ujišťujeme vás, že se nemusíte ničeho obávat, nikdy byste se neměli pokoušet odstranit tyto skryté účty.

    Zdravím , taky jsem se toho podivného účtu všiml, když jsem čerstvě nainstaloval Windows 11Pro , já ho prostě zablokoval a je klid , nelze tomu účtu věřit, že je bezpečný , když je hodnocen jako neznámý. Když jsem měl před tím Windows 10Pro , tak tam to bylo už v pohodě to zabezpečení vyladěné. Nemohu riskovat že ten účet jednoho dne převezme kontrolu na systémem , když má rovnou povolené speciální práva a tak je lepší ho zablokovat.
