The user must have absolute control over the folder including the ability to grant other users control over the folder. Or just install your app to %appdata% or some other folder the user has control over. Or just let wyUpdate prompt for UAC permissions rather than trying to circumvent good security practices.
Why asks wyBuild for admin-privileges?
Hi wyDay-Team,
I've an issue concerning the usage of admin privileges.
The process: I want to update the application on a client machine from version 0.2.2017.0119.1 to 0.2.2017.0119.2.This update contains only files and folders, no registry changes or update action.

The executing user has permissions to read, write and execute in the targeted folders and subfolders:https://www.pic-upload.de/view-32650458/privileges.png.html
Contrary to the expectations wyBuild asks the user for admin privileges to perform the update:https://www.pic-upload.de/view-32650475/AdminRequired.png.html
Why is the user asked for admin privileges?
Best regards Sebastian
