Here is code from an installer I have that works for me:
<Component Id="CID_Logs" Guid="{837A1B74-98C9-4042-B51D-58F38448CE46}"
Location="local" DiskId="1">
<CreateFolder>
<Permission GenericAll="yes" User="Administrators" />
<Permission GenericRead="yes" GenericWrite="yes" User="Network Service" />
</CreateFolder>
</Component>

Subject: [WiX-users] grant permissions on a folder to a specific user if the
user happens to be NT AUTHORITY\Network Service
Hi All,
How do you grant permissions to a folder for a specific user if the user
happens to be the built in Network Service account?
I have tried:
<Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric"
Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E">
<CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory">
<util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes"
ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes" User="NetworkService" />
</CreateFolder>
</Component>
<Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric"
Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E">
<CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory">
<util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes"
ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes" User="[SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER]"
/>
</CreateFolder>
</Component>
In this scenario SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER is equal to "NT AUTHORITY\Network
Service".
<Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric"
Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E">
<CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory">
<util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes"
ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes"
Domain="[SQLSERVERSERVICEDOMAIN]" User="[SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER]" />
</CreateFolder>
</Component>
In this scenario SQLSERVERSERVICEDOMAIN = "NT AUTHORITY" and
SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER = "Network Service".
<Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric"
Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E">
<CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory">
<util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes"
ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes" Domain="[ComputerName]"
User="[SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER]" />
</CreateFolder>
</Component>
In this scenario SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER = "NT AUTHORITY\Network Service"
Rather than just keep trying, does anyone know the answer to this one?
Thanks,
Amy
