Explanation

On a Windows domain, Standard Users (also called regular or limited users) do not have privileges to install software system-wide. Domain policies are specifically designed to prevent standard users from making system-level changes, including software installations, to maintain security and stability. Guest users (B) have even fewer rights but are rarely used in corporate domain environments for regular employees. Power Users (C) have some elevated privileges above standard users, though this group is largely deprecated in modern Windows. Administrators (D) have full rights and can install software freely. The standard user account type is the most common for employees who need restrictions.
