Hi there,

Is there a (easy?) way to enable ALL users to install my software?

I have a requirement from on high that any user with any set of privileges should be able to install the software.

Is this possible?
Everytime I try to install as a "guest" user, I get an error saying that I do not have the correct privileges.

I need my package to install regardless of the user privileges.

Any ideas?

Apologies for also putting this message into the InstallShield Developer General forum.

I am currently working on a new install program. My manager would like to see different style prototypes before we decide on one design.

This is why I have also posted this message to the other forum.

First of all make sure you don't have any launch conditions that explicitly check user privileges.
For non-Administrators the setup should default to a per-user installation (ALLUSERS=0 or 2)
Finally you must either enable installation with elevated privileges globally for all users, or assign or advertise the package.
