Use the Well-Known SID to look up the localized name for built-in accounts. I think the C# code would look like this: string aSID = new SecurityIdentifier(WellKnownSidType.LocalServiceSid, null).ToString(); string domain_localService = new System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier(aSID).Translate(typeof(System.Security.Principal.NTAccount)).ToString(); this._localServiceName = domain_localService.Split('\\').Last(); Your post made me realize that I probably have the same issue in one of my setups. Thanks. I adapted the above code from similar code used to look up another localized built-in account, and have yet to test this particular change. ________________________________ If you reply to this email, your message will be added to the discussion below: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/setting-permissions-when-creating-folder-tp7597867p7597871.html To unsubscribe from setting permissions when creating folder..., click here<http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=unsubscribe_by_code&node=7597867&code=U3RldmVuLk9naWx2aWVAdGl0dXMuY29tfDc1OTc4Njd8ODU3MjA0NTIw>.
