Hi all, bit of a prob and not entirley sure where to post this lol.

ok ive got a c# app, and ive created an installer for it using the setup
wizard, all is well as long as i log on as administrator, ive removed the
.net framework so its not trying to install that, and all my libraries are
copy local, so everything should be ok, but then i install as a normal user,
i get an error message cannot write to folder, upon further inspection the
directories the windows installer has created the administrator has full
access, but users only have read access,

So how do i change the properties in the installer to allow me to install
the app for all users.

Thanks Andrew

If everything else fails, try to edit the setup tables with Orca:
