Suborner: The Invisible Account Forger

What's this?

A simple program to create a Windows account you will only know about :)

Create invisible local accounts without net user or Windows OS user management applications (e.g. netapi32::netuseradd)
Works on all Windows NT Machines (Windows XP to 11, Windows Server 2003 to 2022)
Impersonate through RID Hijacking any existing account (enabled or disabled) after a successful authentication

Create an invisible machine account with administrative privileges, and without invoking that annoying Windows Event Logger to report its creation!
