enhancement request: handle localization #844

Open
@nmartingithub

Description

@nmartingithub

When Windows is installed with a different language than English, built-in accounts and group names are translated (Users, Authenticated Users, Administrators and so on...).
This breaks verification and application of access control on files and folders.
It also breaks verification and application of User Rights Assignments.
Proposal: Use well-known SIDs instead of accounts/groups names in the xml file used to generate the configuration

auditpol.exe categories and subcategories are also translated.
Proposal: use subcategories GUID instead of names to handle correct verification/application of audit policies
