"wheel" is a standard system-level user/group on most Unix based systems.

I was putting a .ffx file into the presets folder for AE 2018 (v15.1.1) - on a Mac 10.11.6 (I have admin priviledges) and it asked me to authenticate before it would allow me to put something in, weird, but ok. And then I get to thinking and decide to look at the info for that folder and usually the names listed are system, admin and everyone. Not so on the Presets Folder or the Scripts Folder - instead of admin there is a Name "wheel" and it is set to 'read only' I checked 3 computers and they all had this '"wheel" name and no admin name. I have never had a user name wheel on any of these system. Did Adobe screw up the permissions on this release. Mac users check your info for Presets folder and Scripts folder.
