Install on windows without administrator privilege

I try to install jrockit jdk on WinXP. I am normal user, and cannot become administrator. The error message reported: "Administrator privileges are required to run this installer". Is there any other way to install except getting administrator rights?

Have you tried skipping the 'Install public JRE' step, it's should only
be this step that requires admin privileges.
We will verify the behaviour and fix it if it's not the case.
If skipping the jre step doesn't help, you can do the following:
*Unzip 'win_ia32_jrockit150_03_sdk_no_jre.zip' and
'win_ia32_jrockit150_03_jre.zip' from the installer exe
('jrockit-25.2.0-jdk1.5.0_03-win-ia32.exe'), put them for instance in
c:\tmp.
*Unzip 'win_ia32_jrockit150_03_sdk_no_jre.zip' into c:\jrockit (or some
other directory of your choice).
*Unzip 'win_ia32_jrockit150_03_jre.zip' into c:\jrockit\jre

Why firefox can be installed without administrative privilege

A standard user (i.e without administrator or power user right),able to run the installation package able in his/her workstation.By default, any executable package should not be run without administrator privilege.
Please assist, thanks!

Hi jscher2000,
Yes. I do not want non-administrator domain users to install Firefox. Most of the domain users are using Windows XP and 7 Professional.
Once the Firebox executable file is clicked, Windows does prompt Windows Security message box for administrator username and password.
However, the installation process is proceed, even though no login information is inserted and domain user clicked "NO" .By default, any of the application installation process will be stopped once "NO" option is clicked.
Please advise.
Thanks
Thanks.

Installation without Administrator Privileges

Hi All
From what I can gather from AIR documentation, one cannot install or update AIR, or install or update AIR applications without administrator privileges.
We roll out applications to hundreds of medium size businesses (dealerships) and this represents a huge problem as most employees at these companies do not have admin rights. None of these sites has automated network installs, and all have different situations regarding IT support.
Our current desktop application requires no admin privileges and introducing the AIR portion of our product has caused a big snag.
Is there any way to get around this? Are future versions going to support some way of doing this?
We would probably be ok if we had to do one administrator install of AIR and the app, if further application updates did not require admin rights.
Thanks
Ken

Exactly. A feature that allows Enterprise IT to "bless" an AIR application would be great. The AIR Update Framework is such a great feature. I hate the fact that I cannot use it on my largest AIR installations. That means more expense for us, and our desktop engineering jobs are safe...
From my understanding, the AIR Update Framework already ensures that the digital certificate in an update matches the digital certificate of the installed app. This guarantees that the update came from the same trusted publisher of the app. Very nice.
I think I also read somewhere that on Windows, AIR apps are always installed in the "All Users" profile -- both file system and Registry. An option to install an AIR app in a user's profile would also work for us, if that helps.
So even if we have to SMS the initial application install (with our production digital certificate), allowing the app to update itself would save us a lot of time, effort, money, headaches, etc...

Adobe reader 10.1 AutoUpdate without administrative privileges

Hi,
If I install Adobe Reader 10.1 for windows 7 manually, then standard user without administrative rights can use autoapdate. If I install it through Group Policy or SCCM, then standard users should enter admin's password. How can I install Adobe Reader automatically and that it doesn't demand administrator's password from standard users?

Well, Let me rephrase, so you want to push the Reader 10.1 via GPO and then afterwards you want the users machines get updated automatically. i.e. Post 10.1, you want the users to receive updates via (Help>Check for updates) silent update and not via GPO. Am I right?
If this is the case, am not sure if this is an supported scenario, because you are installing an AIP first and then the next updates are coming from an Non AIP installation. As far as I know, if we have deployed any patch via GPO then the next updates must be pushed via GPO only. Since, their underlying technology is AIP. We should not be mixing both the ways of installation.
I do not think, there's any solution available for your problem via GPO right now. Though I would like to see your Cust Wizard option once. But what I can suggest you to resolve the issue with SCCM (if possible)

12c install on Windows without admin account?

Is it possible to grant a non-administrator group member account explicit permissions to be able to install the software without adding the user to the local (or domain) administrators group?
I'm stumbling into the issue described in other installation discussions where I get an error:
SEVERE: [FATAL] [INS-30131] The initial setup that is required to run the installation program validation was not successful.
CAUSE: Access to the temp directory was not successful.
ACTION: Ensure that the current user has the necessary permissions to access the temp directory.
So I can ask my helpdesk to allow me to create/enable the admin share, but I'm concerned that this will get me only as far as the next error message.
In general, our company policy is to enforce separation of duties and deny explicit admin permissions, so I would like to identify the explicit requirements for installation to work
(that said, I need to get the software installed, so if it's not documented anywhere, I'll probably just ask for admin privs).

Desktop Manager does not recognize device without administrator privileges

Hi. My BB Bold is working fine at home with DM 4.6. However, at work DM only detects that the device is connected when I'm granted with administrator privileges (Windows XP Pro, SP2). When I'm denied the extra privileges DM cannot detect the BB.
DM was intalled under administrator privileges but I'm not allowed having this privileges permanently.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It sounds like when DM was installed, it wasn't installed 'for any user'. Perhaps uninstall it and when it's reinstalled make sure the option 'for any user' is checked (insteald of 'only for this user').
If you find a post here helpful, please consider giving the poster some Kudos

Ability to install Studio 10 without root privileges

My group is currently using Forte Developer 6 to develope on Sun Blade 2500 machines running Solaris 8. I would like to use the trial version of Sun Studio 10 to show my group the performance improvements recieved by upgrading compilers. I've downloaded the install packages, but found that root privileges are required to run the install (even when trying to install in my own workspace). Is there any way I can install Studio 10 without having root privileges? I work for a fairly large company where it is almost impossible to get root privileges even for developer machines to do any install. Finding someone who does have root privileges and is willing to do the install seems even more difficult. Anyway, any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

Unfortunately, root privileges are required for installing, updating, or uninstalling any available release of Sun Studio. The reason is that the product is installed as packages, which requires root privileges to update the Solaris package database. Using packages and root-only access ensures that an installation is identifiable and consistent (except for mistakes made by people with root access). Supporiting the product is difficult when there is no way to know what is actually installed.
Nevertheless, the ability to install as an ordinary user is a frequently-requested feature. We are looking a ways to provide this capability in a future release.

Lightroom won't install; says I need administrative privileges

I already have Photoshop CC. I updated to the new photography package with Lightroom and Photoshop and it keeps saying I need administrative privileges.

Is it Lightroom or your operating system that says you need Administrator privileges? Usually you do need this to install new software.

I am the admministrator?

From the Windows Desktop right-click on My Computer.
Click Manage, which should open the Computer Management Window as shown below.
Click the + next to Local Users and Groups or double-click it. Note: If you cannot access this section, you do not have administrator rights to the computer.
Click Users and in the right pane you should see all user accounts setup on your computer.
Double-click the account you wish to view the rights of.
Click the Member Of tab.
If the user is a Member of "Administrators" that account has admin rights.

Can't install new applications without administrator...which is me.

Currently, I cannot install any new software on my mac. I have a PowerMac G5, dual 2-Ghz 2-GB RAM, OS 10.3.9. Whenever I attempt, it tells me that I need to be (or contact) the adminstrator, which I am; most often, I can get an "authenticate" option where I can simply re-type my password. Other times I don't get the option and the install shuts down. This all happened after I ran the drivers for the Arduino microprocessor. Any ideas?

This sounds like normal behaviour. The OS is supposed to ask you to approve changes that are system-wide. Or am I missing your point?
Other times I don't get the option and the install shuts down.
This, on the other hand, does not.
This all happened after I ran the drivers for the Arduino microprocessor. Any ideas?
The suggestions about first aid sound like good ones... Before repairing permissions, verify the disk and make sure it says it "appears to be OK".

Installing new windows without losing my podcasts settings???

Hi,
since i've got problems with my windows, i am really keen on formatting and reinstalling xp. i've already made a backup of all my podcast-files (my itunes library is on drive d:, so formating drive c: won't affect my files anyway),
however, i don't want to lose my podcast settings and descriptions within itunes. is there any solution for this problem
thanks in advance for your help

Podcast descriptions are part of the episode files. Episodes use the artist, album, and track track tags for this.
When opening iTunes on new installation hold down the shift key during startup of iTunes. It will open dialog to select library. Navigate to file and select it.
Some of this may help

CS5 Updates only with Administrator Privileges?

Hi!
I installed CS5 Design Premium on several PCs in the company as administrator, the Users dont have administrator-privileges. The problem is, that CS5 does prompt for updates very often at the moment, and the users cant apply them. Is there a way to let them apply the updates without administrator privileges? I dont want to update this much PCs on my own and i dont want to give the users admin privs, of course
Cheers & thanks for help,
Chris

We made a "hack" to get this possibillity under CS4.
You have to look into "runaspc.exe" in order to get it to work.
That's the way we did it.
Not an ideal solution but Adobe has not yet managed to their updates to work with eg WSUS or similar.
They have however released their Adobe Update Server, but that doesn't help one bit as the update procedure still needs administrative rights.

Why are administrator privileges required to log out of Creative Cloud?

Hi,
we are using Creative Cloud for Teams on managed Mac OS X-Clients, which means our users are working on standard user accounts and have no administrator privileges. They are able to sign-in to Creative Cloud with their Adobe ID without problem, but logging off is a different story: its impossible to log out of CC without administrator privileges.
Any informations regarding this issue?
Thanks!

Hi Abhijit,
CC was distributed to the client computers with CC Packager, where it's recommended NOT to distribute the CC Desktop app if the user has no admin privileges.
I gave it a try anyway and installed a package including CC Desktop, but it didn't help. When trying to sign out of CC, the user gets an error message, see following screenshot (it's in german, sorry).
Thanks for your help,
Tobi
