A value representing the logged in user.

On Windows this is the user SID on all other platforms it is the value returned by `id`.

Be aware that if you are running under `sudo` then you `id` will change to 0.

If you require additional information look at the [posix](https://pub.dev/packages/posix) package or the [DCli](https://pub.dev/packages/dcli) `isPrivilegedUser` function.

Possible values:

* Windows - S-1-5-21
* All others - 1000
* if running under sudo - 0

### Example:

```dart
import "package:system_info2/system_info2.dart";

print("User ID          : ${SysInfo.userId}");
```
