In addition to what you see on the login screen, Windows 10 tends to create multiple users and groups in the background to multitask on a computer. However, they are not visible to a normal user. They are connected in the background and are very useful for structuring permissions. They are available to be viewed and managed on the computer. There are different ways to do it.
