I have an RCP app based on NetBeans 8.2, for which I use the built-in Installer for my deployments. I have reports of installation issues on MS Windows machines, depending on how it is installed.
The scenario is that in large organizations, IT policies are in place to prevent regular users from installing programs at all. So the IT folks help them in one of two ways (the first one fails) 1. Go to or remote into user's machine. Login with IT tech's credentials who have Admin privileges. Install the program. Log out and the User logs back in. 2. Temporarily elevate user's privileges to Admin until the install is completed. Then reset user to previous privileges afterwards. The first option fails when the actual User tries to run the app: [cid:image001.png@01D42598.BD1FC6A0] I'd like to stay with the NetBeans Installer as it does everything I need. I have heard this complaint from several users/companies, so I have to assume that option #1 is expected to be a viable option for the install of programs. Has anyone run across this before?
