+
+The directory resource now property supports passing ``deny_rights :write`` on Windows nodes.

+This example will no longer result in the MyApp service reverting to default RunAsUser:
+```ruby
+windows_service 'MyApp' do
+ run_as_user 'MyAppsUser'
+ run_as_password 'MyAppsUserPassword'
+ startup_type :automatic
+ delayed_start true
+ action [:configure, :start]
+end
