Rob,
I tried various accounts and I read <PermissionsEx> uses the "LocalService, Guests, Users" type syntax. If I use "Administrators" it installs the service, fails the config and leaves the service installed and me unable to uninstall it. Without <ServiceConfig> and <PermissionEx> it works fine. Adding <ServiceConfig> gives me "Permission Denied" and I can't understand why. If my account can install it and uninstall it why would tweaking some values fail? Adding <PermissionEx> causes the other issue and gives me the "SID not found". It should be simple. I should add <ServiceConfig> and it should just work surely?
