I have two applications that I am having an issue with during their
installation.
Only the user that they are installed under has access to use the
application.
If I try to install them under a user that does not have administrator
privileges, and use the 'Run as Administrator' method then this user does not
get access only the administrator-level user that was referenced.
The software installs without a hitch; that is, it does not report any error
or warnings. The icon does not appear on the desktop or under 'Start/All
programs' for the non-administrator user.
I have tried copying the icon after installing the application under an
administrator profile to the 'All Users/Start Menu' folder and then go to
another user and click on the copied icon but I always get some error stating
that the program could not run.
I work around it now by upgrading each user to administrator, install the
software in the each profile individually and then reverse the user's profile
to a non-administrator status.
If anyone can assist in coming up with a shorter method since I will have to
install into everyone's profile who is sharing the machine.
