Bendes Posted August 28, 2013 Report post Posted August 28, 2013 Hi everybody, I come to you about new ideas to deploy an Application with user part. Currently, I deploy it like the following : - A first Application named "Xxxxxx (System)" that installs the software as SYSTEM (with administrative privileges) and that is just copied to DP's (not deployed). - A second Application named "Xxxxxx" that installs the user part configuration (Registry settings/AppData files - specific to end-user) with user context. This one is deployed to a Collection with the Application "Xxxxxx (System)" as a dependency. My principal problem is if a user wants to uninstall the software, only user part (running with user privileges) can be uninstall... Any ideas? Other kinds of solution are welcome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmrelMahdy Posted August 29, 2013 Report post Posted August 29, 2013 you mean user cannot uninstall the user part, but can uninstall the system part ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendes Posted August 29, 2013 Report post Posted August 29, 2013 I can simplified my request by asking : How do you manage a deployment of an Application that needs some user part configuration settings (in the user's profile)?

AmrelMahdy Posted August 29, 2013 Report post Posted August 29, 2013 run deployment with user rights Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendes Posted August 30, 2013 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Yes, I know it but you don't understand my request... For example, I need to create an Application deployment that installs WinZIP with some customization settings located in the user's registry hive (HKCU\SOFTWARE\...). Of course, the end-user does not have administrative rights... How do you manage this kind of deployment? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter33 Posted August 31, 2013 Report post Posted August 31, 2013 There are several ways to go. - create a compliance rule for the settings (i would prefer this way) - export the registry keys and create an application or package which runs in the user context - create a MSI for the Installation with an active setup section - create a group policy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvineets Posted August 31, 2013 Report post Posted August 31, 2013 Adding to what peter referred , scripts are also an option, put all the actions in script, encrypt the source and deploy it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
