| How do I detect administrator privileges? InstallScript In InstallScript, the expression SYSINFO.WINNT.bAdmin_Logged_On returns TRUE if the user has administrator privileges. (The expression Is(USER_ADMINISTRATOR, "") returns the same information.) Note that these expressions return TRUE on Windows 9x. MSI The AdminUser property is set if the user running your installation program has administrator privileges. Therefore, you can use “AdminUser” as an Install Condition, or a condition on a feature, component, or custom action. The AdminUser property is always set on Windows 9x. |
