Abstract
Documentation:
The group element holds a string that represents the name of a particular group. In Windows, group names are case-insensitive and thus case does not matter for this entity. In a domain environment, groups should be identified in the form: "domain\group name" For local groups use: "computer name\group name" For built-in accounts on the system, use the group name without a domain. For example: ADMINISTRATORS, etc. Note that the built-in group names should be all caps to help improve readability as that is how the windows apis return them. Of course techincally it does not matter since the names are case-insensitive.
