I don't know if the element will take it, but this would be a perfect place for a localized string to build localized installers.

This works fine when installed under English Windows but not for German. Problem is with util:PermissionEx User="Everyone". util:PermissionEx User="Jeder" works for German. Is there some way to make it language independent? I've seen various comments saying that Everyone should be translated to the SID automatically by WiX, but this doesn't seem to work for me.
