Hello,

I am attempting to use the WixQueryOsWellKnownSID action to query the
localized group names for the Administrators and Users groups. In general,
per the log file the action appears to be running and exiting but is still
returning the English spelling of these groups thus causing the install
package to fail (cannot locate the group names since they are misspelled).
This is running on a Portuguese version of Windows 7 Professional. Using
released version of WiX 3.0.

This is how the source is using the action and properties:

<PropertyRef Id="WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS" />
<PropertyRef Id="WIX_ACCOUNT_USERS" />

<util:Group Id="UsersGroup" Name="[WIX_ACCOUNT_USERS]"/>
<util:Group Id="AdministratorsGroup" Name="[WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS]"/>

Within the User element referencing the groups like so...

<util:GroupRef Id="UsersGroup"/>
<util:GroupRef Id="AdministratorsGroup"/>

Is there something I am doing wrong, or does this action only support a
subset of all possible languages?

Is there a way to specify the names by common SID and avoid this action
altogether?

Thanks.
