Did you notice the difference between (Guest, Henri) and (Test, UpdatusUser) ?????

They are all 'S-1-5-21-X-Y-Z account/SIDs' ... but the gecos field of Guest and Henri only have TWO
members ... that is, what is the difference between Henri and Test (both are local accounts, created
by me)?

That why I said, "to me this output is inconsistent" ...

Henri
