emacs -Q
Dired on a subdir of, say, c:\
 
.. has the owner and group listed as "Everyone". What's that about? If
I click `..', I see that none of the files or subdirectories in c:\
belong to "Everyone" (in my case). That "Everyone" artifact is
incorrect and misleading.

This is not a bug, but expected behavior, for files/directories for
which NTFS file security records specify "Everyone" (numerical value
of zero) for the file's owner or primary group.
