Hi,

What is one to do when the user don't have admin rights. What I've heard is that I, at least on XP, should install to the My Documents folder. Is that correct? And for the registry entries, should they go in CURRENT_USER rather than LOKAL_MACHINE or what? How is this usually solved?

In my installs the setup aborts if the user has no admin rights. This is the hard way but in my opinion it's the best way. Imagine you would have to install a device driver and you do not have admin rights -> this won't work.

This is unfortunatly not an option for me, a non-admin has to be able to install..
