If the install wizard creates a local account during installation, which security group will the user be assigned?

When the install wizard creates a local account during the installation of AVEVA Application Server, the user is assigned to the Administrators security group. This is intentional as the Administrators group has elevated privileges necessary for the operation of the application server. Users in this group can manage system settings, install software, and make changes that affect all users on the machine.

Assigning the new account to the Administrators group ensures that the application has the necessary access and control over various components and system resources, which is critical for performance, security, and functionality. This setup allows for streamlined management and reduces the likelihood of permission-related issues that could disrupt the operation of the AVEVA Application Server.

In contrast, the other security groups, such as Users, Guests, and Operators, have more restricted permissions. Users typically have standard access with limited ability to change system settings, Guests have very minimal privileges designed for temporary access without altering any system configurations, and Operators might have some management capabilities but still fall short of the comprehensive control granted to Administrators.
