Remarks

When inspecting object attributes this setting determines whether SID attributes such as "objectSid" are returned as binary objects or converted into a human readable string such as "S-1-5-21-4272240814-246508344-1325542772-12464". When set to True a friendly string value is returned. When set to False (default) a base 64 encoded string of the binary object is returned.
