Hi all,
Why Non-admins users can't see the change button in the Add/remove programs. Installation is done by admins either locally or through the active directory.However, if the user doesn't have admin right , the change and remove buttons are hidden(repair is still there).(All buttons are there with an admin account) How I can force the change button to be all the time there?
Note that I tried to run the following command as from a nonadmin account:
msiexec -i {Product code}
I was directed to the maintenance dialog and I was able to change the application configutration....(I wasn't able to remove it which I think is the normal behaviour )
I tried to play with the ADRNOMODIFY property but with no success???
How can I show that change button in the add/remove program?
Any Suggestions....
Thank you very much .....

Add/Remove Programs just reads the options from the registry, at
HKLM(or HKCU)\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
Each subkey of this key contains the settings.
I've heard people using it to tackle the icon-problem in per-user installations (due to a bug in the Windows Installer, per-user installations do not get a proper icon). Apparently they just added a key to the Registry table. You could try the same for the modify button.
