In my Humbolt opinion you are the King - nay the Emperor of puns. You lift up your chin-strap on your thinking cap and let fly with these Royal one liners.
The Key-we feel- is that you do not chicken out when you let a few turkeys slip in but keep flying forward with moa and moa puns. It is one of the rhea-sons that I keep rhea-ding your posts.

I was wondering if any of you have noticed an additional user account under Windows 10 with the first letter of your first name along with your last name ie. (dhutchings) for me. I recently installed Windows 10 Pro on a new laptop using my first name as the username. After the last Windows 10 update, I noticed a secondary account with dhutchings that I have no access to. At first, I thought it was a support account, but this username has a full profile with documents, music, pictures, etc. I asked a friend of mine about his Windows 10 machine and he has the type of account with his name in the same format. Like me, he uses his first name as his username. I may just be paranoid, but when I can't delete, alter, gain access to an account on a machine that I'm administrator on, it makes me question the security.
[EDIT]
To give a little more information, this computer does not have Office of any kind installed and I'm using VS2013 with SQL Server 2014 Developer. I've only used that username (dhutchings) once and it was a work domain. This is a new machine with Windows 10 Pro just recently installed and I've never remotely logged into it. It appeared after an update.

is your main account a local one or one of those online things?

My account is a local one and it's not part of a domain. It's my development machine and I don't log into anything online for it. I thought that it could be a Microsoft cloud account, but I don't use it and I don't log into Microsoft on this box. It wouldn't bother me so much if it didn't have a complete user profile, but since it's administrator with complete access to the machine, it concerns me that there is a way into the box outside my control.

Hmmm, I have seen this with account if linked to Office 365 & Visual Studio latest (2018??). I think it's so you log on remotely?...

I thought that as well, but I don't have Office of any kind on the machine and I'm using VS2013. It showed up on an update previous to last Thursday's update.

Agreed, but if I don't have the password, how can I use it to remote in?

When you click on the user profile folder in Explorer, does it not give you the opportunity to take ownership?
If not, try to explicitly launch explorer.exe as an administrator, then select the folder, Properties, Security, Advanced. See if there's anything you can do there to take over.

Thanks, I'll try that.

Have you ever logged into the same Microsoft account you used to activate your laptop from your work computer? Or vice versa?
|
|
|
|

No, that's what's concerning me. It's a new machine and just starting programming on it. I noticed the account after I started having issues with Access Denied errors in Visual Studio opening and saving files. I was logged into my local account, but it was trying to save to this new account.

Obviously, somehow MS discovered the link between the two accounts and decided to be too helpful. MS does like to be too helpful, and we are living in the era of run-away AI, after all.

 Obviously! 
I do think that both accounts are linked, but not sure how.

It's not a customized IIS app pool identity is it? Those are the only other accounts that show here on my system which also have full profiles.

It could be. I'm writing a Web MVC service, but where did it get dhutchings from? I would have thought it would use some other type of username.

Thanks for the link. 
I'll do a little more research into it and see if SQL Server is the culprit.

Could be office 365, if your company is a partner.
