ahcruzadoLets suppose that I have a folder in a C drive for which I do not have admin privileges. However, I can copy and paste, and thus I can update my application manually by overwriting the existing files.On the other hand, if I use wyUpdate I am prompted for admin credentials.Ive read other posts about the same issue where it is recommended to install the application in a user folder (such as documents, appdata, etc.):https://wyday.com/forum/t/724/update-without-admin-privileges/#post-3675However, Ive seen that the autoupdater.net product solves the issue through the following code line:AutoUpdater.RunUpdateAsAdmin = false;I consider wyUpdate + wyBuild a superior product than autoupdater.ner. Nevertheless, would it be possible that wyUpdate implements a similar property?Thank you.
You must give wyUpdate full control over the folder (and not do any other admin related thing -- registry changes, installing services, COM changes). Then, and only then, will wyUpdate not require UAC privldge requests.
Or just install your app to the app data folder.
