Set Folder and Registry permission

Hi...

I am new to Insallshield, my project type is Basic MSI..

My applicaion installed with out any issue in Admin user..

I try to install my applicaition in Non-Admin user, Installer throws the Error message (Error 1303 : The installer has insufficient privileges to access the directory : C:\Program Files\My Company Name. The installation not continue. Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator)

I try to fix this issue according to the following steps
1.) In componet view -> Destination Permissions properties -> I tried all the users(Administrator, Everyone, [LogonUser], etc) similarities with full control, no help from installer.

I Set ALLUSERS property as 1 or 2 , no help from installer.

Please help for this issue, our product should installed in Non-Admin user also..

Thanks,
Sri.

If you want to install without any admin rights, you have to use only user-accessable dirs, e.g. COMMON_APP_DATA, etc.

You can't write to Program Files or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE without admin rights.
And you can't set permissions on these things either.
