Information

Domain:

The user's domain. You can use a specific literal domain name or a property. Here are some especially useful properties that you can use:

[%USERDOMAIN] = The value of the USERDOMAIN environment variable.

[ComputerName] = The local computer's domain.

User:

The name of the user. You can use a specific literal user name (such as "Betty White") or a property. Here are some common values that you can use:

[LogonUser] - The currently logged in user. (MSI Property)

Users

Everyone

Administrators

Backup Operators

Power Users

Guests

Replicator

Permissions

A list of permissions that can set for the user. Check the permissions that you want to apply.

Note: Setting user permissions can be both tricky and risky. You should only set user permissions explicitly when you have a specific need to do so. When you do not explicitly set user permissions, the normal rules of Windows permissions apply to files, folders, and registry entries that are installed.
