In MSDN, for the description of the ServiceAccount enumeration it has
the following:
LocalService: An account that acts as a non-privileged user on the
local computer, and presents anonymous credentials to any remote
server.
NetworkService: An account that provides extensive local privileges,
and presents the computer's credentials to any remote server.
What is the meaning/implication of the 2 phrases "presents .... to any
remote server".

Hello,
When you are running a windows service and remotely access a resource (say,
a database server) with integrated authentication, the local service account
will connect as Anonymous, whereas the NetworkService connects to the
database with the computer account.
Best regards,
Henning Krause

Thanks Henning, your post made me aware that these were user accounts.
It turns out that there are several special types of account (aka
"built-in security principals") which are used for this and other
purposes. They don't show up in the Computer Management snap-in but
you can see them from the "Security" tab for folder permissions in
Explorer.
I found this paper here if anybody is interested: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec...t/default.mspx

Does anybody know why I can't use this command...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
