  I saw the pictures and found that you had to the security of the folder/file. From there, change the owner of your current account. The account unknown S-1-5-21-98... user id internal to the user account that created the file and so you have the permission of that user, which is impossible because even if you create a user account with the same name, the user id cannot be the same.

• Windows has installed a user account IMPORTUNATE on my computer

  Windows downloaded the updates and install them. When I rebooted the computer off for a day or if a NEW user account, with a photo, appeared on the monitor which made me choose which account to click on in order to open the computer. The name of the new user account is: mscKaamar. I don't have not set up a user account since I was the only person who uses this computer. Something installed this account on my computer without my permission. There are 2 icons on the log on screen down to the left and right corners. The lower left, when I place the mouse on it, she opens a box that gives me several options to choose from that will do different things and the only one I remember is the first that audibly reads the choice for me to choose. The first is, of course, for the system I READ what is on the screen. I chose any of them and closed the window. I don't know what that the lower right button since I didn't click on it. Also, I found when performing a search for her and deleted / removed from each place I found. BUT he keeps his return and resettlement itself, even if I removed by "Withdrawal" of the account with the Control Panel, as well as removing the Program Files, etc etc. It cannot be "uninstalled" from the Control Panel programs because it is not installed as would your typical program.

  Anyone know what this thing is, how it got on my computer and most importantly, HOW to GET THE DARN permanently THING OFF! All help is greatly appreciated.

  Thanks, Jim

  Hi Jim,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I do not understand that you cannot remove the user account that is not created by you and I'll be happy to answer your query. According to the description of the problem, it seems that your computer can be affected by malware. Let me ask you a few questions;

  • You have the installation media for Windows 7?
  • What security software is installed on the computer?
  • You are connected to the computer with administrator rights?
  • You receive an error message when you try to delete?

  There could be several other reasons according to the questionnaire. We can try the following methods and check.

  Method 1: Start the computer Safe Mode and check if you are able to remove the unknown user.

  Safe mode is an option of troubleshooting for Windows that starts your computer in a limited State. Only basic files and drivers needed to run Windows are started. The words Safe Mode appear in the corners of your monitor to identify which Windows mode you are using.

  Please refer to: , start your computer in safe mode

  Method 2: Remove unknown user account in safe mode

  Note: Make sure that you have all the data available in the libraries of unknown user account

  a. press the Windows key + R, and type control userpasswords2 click OK

  b. Select the unknown user account, and then click the delete tab

  c. click OK and restart the computer

  Same steps can be used in Normal mode.

  Method 3: Perform a full scan of malware from your PC

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  Microsoft safety scanner

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  Method 4: Run the System File Checker tool

  System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

  To do this, click Start, type command or cmd prompt in the Search box, right click invite, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

  At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

  sfc/scannow

  Note: Do not close the command prompt window until the audit is completed 100%. The results of the analysis will be posted when this process is complete.

  Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  Hello networktec,

  1. you have access to the files and folders on the Windows partition when you work inside VMWare?

  If the security on the files/folders tab will then a user/group account that has the username inside VMware listed list. This could be the reason that the user name is created. Unknown user can be a part of the Vmware software.

  However, I suggest that you post your question to the VMware community to see if it is the cause of the unknown account:

• Unknown Security tab under account in my user account

  Greetings,

  I have a bit of a quandry.  {I was check the properties of my c:\{computer account user name}-{username}- and when I chose the Security tab, I have two entries in there that begin with "Account unknown" and a long string of letters and numbers after him.  I'm not sure if these should be there or not.  Any assistance/advice would be greatly appreciated.

  It is slow since updated for Sierra.

  A part of which is related to the upgraded Photos app. If you have lots of photos (in thousands), it will take a lot of time for it reach to analyze your photo library. The best thing to do is to let him finish, as long as it could be. 1 hour per 1000 photographs as a rough estimate. When it is finally over, the performance of your Mac will be back to normal.

  Definitely get rid of "Trusteer" however. As a needless "anti-virus" garbage is still installed on your Mac, it is unreasonable to expect it to work the way it was designed to work. Safari won't work. Mail will not work. A lot of other things that you really need to work just won't work. Please read of effective defenses against software malware and other threats.

  You don't need the Extension Safari DDG, since DDG has been integrated natively in Safari for some time. Select the Safari menu > Preferences > Search and select the dropdown Search engine DuckDuckGo . Then, select Extensions, select the extension DuckDuckGo and Uninstall.

  Leaving the current Extension is OK but it does nothing.

  I don't know what it is. If you do not either, get rid of it. At least delete your login items.

• unknown user Skype with my email

  [The update by the moderator topic title should be more descriptive. [Original topic title was: 'unknown user Skype']

  Today at approximately 11:26, a Skype user, I've never added before is appeared on the list of my friend? Their display name is set to one of my emails (which is not registered to this Skype account including) and to my knowledge has no connection with the account that I currently use.

  I called and texted. The call never crossed and the message sent, no more. They have no user name in their info, only 'messenger' Panel, where the username is supposed to be.

  Anyone know what it is? It could be a kind of robot, but I don't know because this email is not connected to it. This could be because I have connected to the Skype account that the bot is associated on this computer, but I'm not sure.

  Screenshots down below.

  Any help or ideas for what this might be is greatly appreciated.
