Re: Why do I have multiple HKEY_USERS but only one account?

My system has been running for three years without the LocalService and
NetworkService accounts. They are NOT NEEDED on single-user systems,

While not "needed", what you've suggested to "BillyG" is to change every
service to run under the elevated LocalSystem account. That's a *terrible*
idea, as any compromised service will then run with full access to
everything. This is in no way different than suggesting Linux users should
run everything as root.

and in fact they negatively impact performance on such systems!

How are you quantifying that "fact"?
