How to retrieve the local admin group name?The question sounds simple, but appearantly it is not...
How can I get the name of the local administrators group? The problem is, that with different Windows languages the name differs. In english the name is "Administrators", in german "Administratoren" in spanish "Administratores" etc... I also have the same problem with the "Distributed COM Users" group... Any idea? Thanks in advance! Ultimus wrote:
