ALLUSERS property
HI all,
not sure if this is a correct sub forum to ask.
i have a problem when trying to install a software from .msi file. the software is MS ActiveSync 4.5
during the instalation i receive "1: ALLUSERS property is not 1 - this MSM cannot be used for a per-user or fallback-to-per-user-install" message and cannot continue.
I read what i could find here about this message but all threads are reffering to different problem it seems.
thank you in advance

It sounds like the installation has been authored to run for all users on a machine rather than the option just for me. But strangely it sounds like it's defaulted the other way. I presume you've extracted this from a setup.exe to be able to deploy it and the setup.exe passed through the all users property for you.
Run the installation like this and see what you get:
msiexec /i "" ALLUSERS=1
You may also be missing other properties that the setup is passing through though so it may be trial and error
