Allow antimicrox to be installed on non-admin computers (without using hacks like runasinvoker)
Is there an existing issue for this?
- [X] I have searched the existing issues
Current Behavior
Installer requires administrator privileges to use despite application not needing them.
Expected Behavior
It works when using set __COMPAT_LAYER=RunAsInvoker
in a batch file and then running the installer. This means that the installer does not need to require administrator privileges to install. I would expect it to install without needing administrator permissions.
Steps To Reproduce
- Run the setup file.
Environment
- OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Education 10.0.19043 Build 19043
- AntiMicroX version: 3.2.1
Anything else?
Basically just make it able to be installed without admininstrator and without needing workarounds like set __COMPAT_LAYER=RunAsInvoker
Hi @ayunami2000 thanks for report and possible solution,
Bot to be honest, I don't know how to apply change you suggested.
But any PR tackling this will be welcome
Perhaps also provide a .zip version? "Portable"
There is https://github.com/AntiMicroX/antimicrox/issues/343 for this
Portable version on windows does run without administrator approval required.
I think @koga-ninja is right, this issue can be closed. :)
