Even more baffling is that I have another installation that are
completely fine even with their Group now switched to Administrators.
The one syxstem where I've had the problems is a server version and
might have some GPO that affect thing that an admin user does.

The ownership is still with the user that runs the install script,
however the group has changed.

I think that setup was essentially treating the install as "for this
user only" since it was created and maintained by a script that can't
affect that option and the fact it was also in group Adminsitroators
didn't actually register until now.

The DACL on the server install changed from conferring access to "Everyone" to
just the install user and SYSTEM IIRC.  It doesn't do that on the
(non-domain) build machine at home that runs Win10 Pro.
