After packaging a vb6 program via PWD, I installed the program on an end user machine running Windows XP. I use an account with local administration rights and installation is fine. But user with no admin rights couldn't run the program properly.
It seems that the installation is for the account I used for installation only, not for ALL users even I have admin rights. What went wrong?

Thanks

I'm not sure if the RUN AS dialog will bypass the problem for good, but I think that if you change the user to an admin and run the program, then you can go back and switch him back, and he'll still be able to run the app, as long as he doesn't need special rights to run the app.
