Install without admin rights?

Dear All,

is it possible to have a winapp have the option to install WITHOUT administration rights to the PC?

We have a very large network in which we require this application to be installed and unfortunately all the users do not have local administration rights which will make the roll out process very slow..

any ideas?

Thank you

I don't think it is possible. Once it is installed with admin rights tho, it will run perfectly fine without them.

I see, it does make it abit difficult when your speaking in excess of 30 clients... very time consuming

I agree, it is but I don't think there is a way around it because of what the windows applications require.

You can right click the installer and click "Run as Administrator" tho which saves time rather than having to log on to the admin account.
