InstallShield DevStudio 9.1
Project type is InstallScript MSI

The problem is :
we need to check the administrative rights existence at the very beginning of installation, i.e. before any coping (even temporary files).

Now this checking is carried out after the coping of some files.
Hence we have the well-known error 1628, which is absent under administrative rights.

What and where we need to insert to have the early checking?

You would need to create an executable that would perform the check and then launch your setup.exe

I don't know if any samples are available on the web. Try codeproject.com or google or MSDN.
