Hello,
Defautuser0 should only be used during OOBE and should be deleted post setup.
This is used to support for additional features like Autopilot and some Microsoft Account and Azure scenarios.
If it's not cleaned up post setup there should be a scheduled task to clean this up after 10 days.
Task - RemoveTempOOBEUserWork
This should clean it up if the user has administrative rights
Darrell Gorter Thank you for the information, in some cases multiple defaultuser accounts are created.
Anyhow, can you please reference offical documentation on your mentioned response? Thank you, Kind regards
