Explanation

The Power Users group was a built-in account group in earlier versions of Windows (Windows XP and earlier) that granted users elevated privileges - more than a Standard User but less than a full Administrator. It was deprecated in Windows Vista when the UAC (User Account Control) model was introduced, and it was fully removed in Windows 10. The Administrator and Standard User accounts remain as core built-in account types in Windows 10. The Guest account was disabled by default in Windows 10 but was not entirely removed from the operating system. Power User is the correct answer as it no longer exists as a functional built-in group in Windows 10.
