Hello,
I have a problem with my installer on WindowsXP. On Windows7 and 8 the installer is asking for admin permission using the UAC Dialog before installation, but on WindowsXP there is nothing shown to the user that the installer requires admin permissions. It installs everything and then run into errors while registering a new system service.
The installation is aborted and rolled back.
Is there a feature I'm missing to be used in order to prevent installation on WindowsXP without Admin permission?
Thanks for your help,
Michael.

Re: WindowsXP is not stopping without Admin Permissions
Hi Michael and welcome to Advanced Installer forum.
Thank you for your interest in Advanced Installer.
In order to achieve what you want you must go in the Install Parameters page and make sure that the "Installation Type" is set to "Per-machine only (fails if user in not administrator)".
Another option is to go in the "Launch Condition" page and check the "Run only if user has administrator privileges" checkbox.
Best regards,
Eusebiu

Hello Eusebiu,
I changed the Launch Conditions as stated and it now behaves on WindowsXP as we want it to.
Thank you very much,
