Can't find the information you are looking for here? Then leave a message over on our WinBatch Tech Support Forum.
Reason being, I need to add Everyone into the Administrators group(per client instructions) during a few processes.
After that, I take them out.
I know it can be done using the actual User Manager, but I'm trying to use the WWWNT34i.DLL to do this.
Basically it says that it cannot find the "Everyone" account.
Help?
But, regardless of the more esoteric aspects of the Everyone SID, you can add it to the "Administrators" local group on WinXP using wntMemberSet(). Please note that once this is done, it is very likely that logging out and logging on again will be necessary in order for administrator rights to be inherited by Everyone [and all users who are logged on who are included as part of Everyone]. I'm thinking that there may be some instances where it is even necessary to reboot the entire workstation for the propagation of inherited rights to be functioning completely, with a corresponding reboot [or just logout/logon] being necessary after Everyone is removed from Administrators.
