Please provide a Windows installer that does not require admin rights

szhorvat opened this issue · 0 comments

Gephi's Windows installer seems to require administrator rights. Many other Windows programs are not like this: they can install for a single user only. Please provide some reasonably simple means of installation that do not require administrator rights.

Proposed solution

If creating an installer package that works without admin rights is not easy, perhaps a simple zip file download could be provided?

Alternatives considered

Additional context

In an academic setting, university-owned computers might be shared between multiple users, or even when they aren't, the main user of the computer may not have admin rights. We have recently faces this very issue at our institution, when a student was unable to install Gephi on their computer.
