Tor Windows service should be installed with the NetworkService account
``` <GITNE> nickm: I have checked running Tor under the NetworkService account. Works fine. The problem I had the last time was a missing write permission on the log file. <GITNE> nickm: So it should probably be safe to change GENSRV_USERACCT to "NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService" > gitne: was that because the log file was trying to go somewhere it shouldn't? or what > gitne: also, does that change work for every windows, or only some of them? <GITNE> armadev: those three predefinded accounts LocalSystem, LocalService, and NetworkService are available since Windows 2000 so Tor should be safe with that. ```
