You must first run WriteLog as the user you want (N7US in your case) and 
do "something" that causes it to write into writelog.ini. At that point
the OS will create your VirtualStore version and that is the one
that you want to edit aftewards.

The writelog.ini in the system's Windows directory is a template. Its
contents are copied to your VirtualStore copy the first time WL writes
anything else to it, and the system copied is never used again
(for that username).

I did not invent this.
