Yes - shares are listed in the registry, with the ACLs all set up
there. The file/directory perms are stored with the file on disk, with
the ACLs contained in the MFT, IIRC (someone correct me on the exact
location if I'm wrong).

Regardless, the ACEs that are contained in the ACLs are listed by bare
SID, and if you view them while the machine is no longer in the
domain, they'll show in all their naked numeric glory - one of mine is
S-1-5-21-1262503660-1468013928-1435325219-3812.

You see the same thing if you have deleted an account (or group!) and
it's still listed in an ACL on a file/directory or share, whether the
account/group was local to the machine or resided in the domain.
