Default "Account Unknown" after Vi$ta re-installation

It's an orphaned $ID - delete it.

What's the appropriate method of dealing them? Could I just remove them?

Probably - but where are you seeing these "Account Unknown"? are they on
Permission lists for objects such as files and folders - in which case
you probably can remove them.


In the Security tag of the file/folder's properties.

I guess I could delete them.

But what if this "Account Unknown" owns a folder?

Also your use of Xubuntu appears to have damaged your keyboard as the
product name is Vista with an "s" not a "$"


It's another PC (home server), not the workstation where I finish most of
my personal tasks, including games of course.
