What is NT Authority\Authenticated Users? Why doesn't just say the name of my Domain there? Thanks.

Because it is not a Domain authority, it is your local machine.

Authenticated Users means those users who access your workstation remotely and are valid local usernames and passwords.

Hi, I think it's important to specify that valid username and password can be on ANY computer (even an hacker's computer).

I never use authenticated users or everyone, I prefer domain users or simply "users"
At least you can trace the users.

nice day!

Jeff
