Administrator and Guest are built in accounts. Guest is usually disabled. Power user used to exist so that would be the logical answer.

by default: Standard user, Guest, Administrator. The question don't say anything about enable or disable account only asking which account doesn't exist on Windows 10. Power user doesn't exist by default

Guest account is disabled by default, not removed/deprecated. Power Users is deprecated because its rights/privileges could be abused to allow the user to obtain more powerful Admin or System rights.

A. Power User - This account type has been removed in Windows 10. C. Guest - The Guest account is still available in Windows 10 but is usually disabled by default for security reasons.

Power User Originally, Microsoft wanted to create a group in Windows whose members were not as powerful as members of the Administrators group, so they created the Power Users group. The idea was that members of this group would be given Read and Write permission to the system, allowing them to install most software but keeping them from changing key operating system files. As such, it would be a good group for those who need to test software (such as programmers) and junior administrators. The group did not work out as planned, and in Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, and Windows 10/11 the group has no more permissions than a standard user. The group is now kept around only for backward compatibility with Windows XP systems.

i only the D A. Power User its a group not built in account like they mention in the question B. Administrator Still available C. Guest still available D. Standard User I don't really remember, but I must think that in the past, when installing the Windows, there was an account to log in and it had admin privileges.

I take it that these are past exam questions, if so then comptia have power user as the answer, but looking at these discussions,it seems as guest has been removed and power user is still there(but a secret). It seems like many other questions that there are 2 extremely similar answers but kinda down to your interpretation of the question

No interpretation necessary for this question. Guest is still very much included in every OS type (simply disabled by default for security). Power User no longer exists. Want to verify that yourself? Go on your PC, navigate to Users and find the “enable guest account option” then try to create a new user and see what account types are available.

The Power users group is no longer used since Windows Vista and the ACL entries are only there for app compatibility. Guest account is not a "built in" account.
