Might this be a "portable" app, where downloaded images and VMs are stored
next to the PharoLancher application, configured by a startup-setting file?


Alternatively...
searching around I found this...

https://github.com/NSIS-Dev/Documentation/blob/master/Reference/RequestExecutionLevel.md


Also, when PharoLauncher is installed by an administrator and later used by
a standard user, I guess there may be problems with Pharo needing to write
changes to a restricted location??   Maybe that can be dealt with by...
when a new user runs PharoLauncher from the start menu, copy it to their
user folder $LocalAppdata\Programs\PharoLauncher
and run PharoLauncher from there where they have privilege to write?

btw, where are the NSIS source files accessible?  Can they be dropped in
the PharoLauncher git repo?

HTH
