there are 2 accounts that are stated as unknown accounts with a bunch of numbers and letters following that under properties/security tab whenever i right-click on any file in my computer. I think they got there because i changed permissions of a account before i deleted it months ago which was my mistake and ever since i created 1 more account without touching any permissions but when i went to delete it, it created a unknown account as well when i deleted it so now i have 2 unknown accounts, how can i remove these two unknown accounts if it is at all possible -- hello2007
