Description

Right now, 'winutils ls' will fail if the file belongs to a user SID that does not exist on the system. E.g. the user is deleted. Previously, this is only a hypothesis scenario. However, we have seen some failures in the Azure deployment where the OS is re-imaged, and renders the old SID invalid. jgordon proposed to display the SID itself in the invalid SID case similar to the situation on Linux. This JIRA is created to track this proposal.
