Install MSI with admin rights by vbscript "Jonathan Alvarez" <jonathan_alvarez[ at ]n0.32.2pam.iparbit.es> 15.06.2007 09:20:58 Hi! I have the following code to install an app: Set objInstaller = CreateObject("WindowsInstaller.Installer") objInstaller.UILevel = 3 + 32 objInstaller.InstallProduct "app.msi" In some machines the user do not have install privileges. Is there any form to install the app in these machines? Thanks.

Administrators can push installs out to limited users with group policy or or by advertising it as a per-machine install, allowing the user to be elevated for the the duration of the install. -- Phil Wilson [Microsoft MVP-Windows Installer] "Jonathan Alvarez" <jonathan_alvarez[ at ]n0.32.2pam.iparbit.es> wrote in message news:OO4c95yrHHA.4180[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...
