How to allow users who are not administrators to install MSI packages

T

Thufir

Going by kc 259459, <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259459>, I'm
trying to edit the registry to allow python to install:

C:\msi>
C:\msi>
C:\msi>dir
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 0491-510F

Directory of C:\msi

12/06/2007 12:36 PM <DIR> .
12/06/2007 12:36 PM <DIR> ..
12/06/2007 12:25 PM 10,970,624 python-2.5.1.msi
1 File(s) 10,970,624 bytes
2 Dir(s) 28,396,879,872 bytes free

C:\msi>
C:\msi>reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows
\Installe
r

! REG.EXE VERSION 3.0

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
EnableAdminTSRemote REG_DWORD 0x1

C:\msi>
C:\msi>reg query HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows
\

! REG.EXE VERSION 3.0

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\\Control Panel

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\\System

C:\msi>


Should I create a registry key?



thanks,
