Find Administrator and Guest username

[RestrictedUser 1]

Hi AutoIt scriptwriters! 

In some of windows operating systems, i saw that "Administrator" and "Guest" username in different languages are "Administradore" and "Gast" and etc. 

How to make a simple script to find Administrator and Guest username in different language in these systems?

Have a look at the Local Account UDF and the _AccountEnum function.

Another way:

#include <Security.au3>

Global $g_aComputerSID = _Security__LookupAccountName(@ComputerName)
    If @error Then Exit
ConsoleWrite(_GetAccountName($g_aComputerSID[0] & "-500") & @CRLF) ;~ Administator Account SID
ConsoleWrite(_GetAccountName($g_aComputerSID[0] & "-501") & @CRLF) ;~ Guest Account SID

Func _GetAccountName($_sAccountSID)
    Local $aAccountSID = _Security__LookupAccountSid($_sAccountSID, @ComputerName)
    Local $sAccoutName = @error = 0 And IsArray($aAccountSID) ? $aAccountSID[0] : ""
    Return $sAccoutName
EndFunc

I want to automatically detect name of Administrator and Guest accounts in another system that have non-english language

_AccountEnum can't help me in this issue

Don't bother with the Guest account name, 99% of the time that account is disabled and useless for any purposes.

Thanks @Subz, your code worked properly for me!

@Subz, I have similar question:

 

How can i find and detect "Administrators" and "Remote Desktop Users" name in Local Groups? because I saw another languages that they were;

• Administrators =====> Administradores (Germany)
• Remote Desktop Users ======> Usuarios de escritorio remoto (Spannish)

No, It's useful for me when i want to grant a person with limited access, such as my brother! :X

Then just create an account. If it's REALLY for someone such as your brother then you know what the Guest account is called. I'm stating to smell fish here.

@Colduction,

Please give me a proper answer this time as you ignored me conveniently last time:

What are you really trying to do as this can't have anything to do with your brother and limiting access.
Do not ignore me this time as the will have repercussions.
