Specify Oracle Home User

Use Windows Built-in Account or specify a standard Windows User Account (not an Administrator account) to install and configure the Oracle Home. This account is used for running the Windows services for the Oracle Home. Do not log in using this account to perform administrative tasks.

For Database Server installations, Oracle recommends that you use a standard Windows User Account (instead of a Windows Built-in Account) as the Oracle Home User for enhanced security.

Check Microsoft documentation for more information about other Windows accounts.
