Mostly you see the unknown Account when your computer is Domain Join and the user is disconnected . This can be a SID of the first user account created on the computer before it was an account from a domain.
some program also create a Special User Account
When you removing these programs they sometimes leave files behind and since they no longer have an owner, and you see Like These
Also This can be a deleted User Accounts.

You Can Check UserAccount And SID by Running this Command

wmic useraccount get name,sid
can you give me more descriptive please?
i think this is enough to understand unknown Accounts. And if you want to learn more about Unknown Account and account groups you need to Learn Microsoft technology
ok thanks for reply Awais
