C Group: Forum Members Posts: 4, Visits: 7	Hi, Is it possible to install SkyDemon onto a Windows computer without admin access? Or maybe adding an option to the installer (like Google Chrome does) to install the app anyway to circumvent it? I would like to use SkyDemon on my work laptop, but we don't have admin access by company policy... And after running the .exe an UAC prompt pops up asking an admin name/pw. Thanks!

Maybe you should not install private software on your computer and violate security policies, if you like your job.

Maybe you should mind your own business especially when you know nothing about me or my job! Sorry for being rude, but your comment absolutely does not help here. But thanks for the insight.
