Unable to set the group Everyone Full Control using Destination Permissions
I'm using InstallScript MSI and I have been unable to set the group Everyone Full Control using Destination Permissions. The help for using the feature is sparse and extremely vague. I have read several threads where other installers have had an issue using this feature and reverted to using CACLS via a custom action to set permissions. Does this feature actually work? If so, what do I need to do to get it to work. I have only been able to get Destination Permissions to work for [LogonUser]. When using the group everyone, does "everyone" need to be in all caps? Does it need to have square brackets [ ] on the ends? What do I enter for a domain? [%USERDOMAIN]

I think you may need to enter Everyone (no square brackets) as the user name, but leave the domain field blank.
I hope that helps.
