"This installation can only be uninstalled by a user with administrative privileges"

[malramsay]

Hi,

I've created a Setup Factory 7.0 installation executable with the following characteristics;

(1) "User must have administrative privileges" in the "Requirements" tab of "Project Settings" set to false.
(2) "User Notication" in the above tab set to "Warn user and continue".
(3) "Create Uninstall" set to false. I have no need for this functionality.

When I install the software on a computer where the user does not have administrative privileges, the software installs but, after the welcome screen a message box pops up with the message;

"This installation can only be uninstalled by a user with administrative privileges."

The user then has to click "OK". I do not want to show this message box, especially as I am not creating an uninstall in the first place. How do I get rid of it?

Thanks for your help,
Malcolm

Try putting this in your startup script:

_InstallStages.CreateUninstall = false;

Thanks Brett. That worked well.
