Windows. If a user does not have admin rights, he can simply install it under its home directory.
Also there is the UAC Virtualization fiasco that complicates installing upgrades. http://lists.pharo.org/pipermail/pharo-dev_lists.pharo.org/ 2014-January/091645.html
Could we *please* install Windows PharoLauncher into user folders?
Users can choose to install Pharo Launcher where they wish. We could choose another default location but not sure it is best option.
Nope, I donât have any option of changing Pharo launcher installation. I double click the exe and receive a message telling me I need administrative rights. Can this be changed? Itâs a deal breaker for those using Windows.
For Windows, Pharo is shipped with an installer. Its only goal is to ask you where to install Pharo. So yes, the installation directory is configurable. Just to be sure, here the link to the installer: http://files.pharo. org/platform/launcher/pharo_installer-1.0.1.exe
Hi Christophe, Can you get access to a Windows machine to try this... 1. Create a Standard User account with a password different from the default account... https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn772452(v=ws.11).aspx 2. Log in as the standard user account. 3. Without typing another password, install PharoLauncher from cheers -ben
