That would depend on the permissions that are available to
non-administrators. Any installation in HKCU is going to be per Windows user
logon. If done under an admin profile the addin wouldn't be available for a
different user.

I'm not sure what your installer packager is doing, I use InstallShield. But
if it's writing to the correct hive and keys in the registry it shouldn't
matter. It then becomes a permissions issue.

hello,

i wrote an addin for outlook with office developer.
Now I need a MSI-Installer for the addin. I tried with WinINSTALL LE and
the
msi package works, when I use the 'per user' option and HKEY_CU registry
entries. But it works only, when I'm logged in as Administrator. The
installer throws an error, when I use it with a normal user account.
When I write to HKEY_LM the AddIn doesn't work at all (I know, that in
this
case one can't see the AddIn in the COM-AddIns tab, but it doesn't work at
all).
Does anybody know, how to build an MSI-Installer, so that it can be used
for
network rollout?
