Creating an install with all users loging to the computer
Hello,
I am using IS LE under VS 2013. The problem I am having is that it installs my program and places a program icon only on the desktop of the person who did the installation, not all users. There is no dialog box that asks whether to install the program for All Users, or just you option, so no shortcut is created on other users' desktops. How can I make sure that a program shortcut icon is created on all user's desktop? (i.e. I want to install the program fro all users to log in to a computer). I am creating setup.exe file for thr installation. Thank you.

You will want to set ALLUSERS =1 (per machine installation)
You can set this under section 1 "General Information"
It also depends on the permissions of the user that is installing the application regardless of the required execution level (invoker, administrator, highest available)
Admin Install - works as expected and installs to all users on the machine
User Install - Error 1925. You do not have sufficient privleges to complete this installation for all users of the machine. Log on as an administrator and then retry this installation.
