   Hi,
   
   commenting on your video from above:
   The msi is doing an administrative installation of CouchDB (UAC window is opening during setup), so the install directory has system rights. Looking at the wix installer we have this:
   ```
   <CreateFolder>
     <Permission User="[WIX_ACCOUNT_LOCALSYSTEM]" GenericAll="yes" />
     <Permission User="[WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS]" GenericAll="yes" />
     <Permission User="[WIX_ACCOUNT_USERS]" GenericRead="yes" GenericExecute="yes" />
   </CreateFolder>
   ```
   So users in the USERS group will get read/execute access by default ...
