Is someone spying on my PC?

[sandydshaw]

Hi. i am positing this question in Tik Tok as i have not found a topic which is appropriate..

This morning i was trying to change the format for a video i wanted to watch on TV and noticed this.

It should show that i am the only admin for my PC , but saw this. Does it mean someone else is viewing my PC?. I made sure i went through my Private settings and did everything to secure this. Please advise? BTW i have edited my details but this is what shows

I think that this is typical for Windows, but it has been a while. This doesn't seem like someone is spying on you at all.

I don't think so.

If I ever have suspicion of a virus, I usually follow this protocol: https://www.reddit.com/r/techsuppor...ested_reading_official_malware_removal_guide/

First of all, thread moved (To BHW lounge).

Secondly, this is normal to have these permissions, they are default folder permissions -

SYSTEM - this is so that the system itself always has access to your files - used for system backups, shadow copy and so on.
Administrators - so that user(s) with administrative access always have access to files and folders.
User account - I presume the one you have obscured is the name of your own user account.
Creator/owner - often you will have an additional permission as well, for creator/owner - ie the user account that actually created the file or folder.
