    Suspicious group/username in my computer

    [ATTACH type=“full”]7898[/ATTACH]
    Look at the Username “SYSTEM”, I didn’t create that and it looks very suspicious since it has full control. What is this and how do I check if this is a virus or who created it?

      It’s ok, everyone has System as a user. I have. I would expect it to be there so Windows can download & install updates & run automatic tasks.

        That is the admin account that the system uses internally.
