Windows Installation (not portable)

6

A solution to this is:

Run the installer from an administrator command prompt

  1. Login as an administrator
  2. Navigate to and/or download the Manager installation file Manager.msi
  3. Right click on Manager.msi → Properties → Select path → Copy
  4. Open a command prompt run as a administrator
  • Start menu → Accessories (or search for cmd.exe)
  • Right click Command prompt → Run as administrator
  1. In command prompt window
  • Type double quote "
  • Right click-> Paste (to insert the path copied above)
  • Type back slash \
  • Type Manager.msi (or copy file name from properties window or file manger)
  • Type double Quote "
  • Press enter key to run the msi

During installation
Select the installation directory c:\Programs → changes to “C:\Program Files (x86)”
but otherwise appears to run successfully

Move the created short cuts to shared menus

  • Start menu → Programs → Right click “Manager” select open → Click on the parent directory → Select then cut the Manager directory
  • Start menu → Programs → Navigate to where you want Manager menu to be → Right click on a shared directory & select open → Paste the Manager directory
  • Move or delete the Task bar and desktop short cuts

Correct the short cut icons

  1. Login to the computer as an ordinary windows user
  2. Select the "Manager shortcut → right click → properties → Short cut tab → click change icon → Navigate c:\Programs (x86)\Manager → click OK
  3. Select the Manager uninstall short cut → right click → properties → Short cut tab → click change icon → navigate to c:\Windows\SystWOW64\msiexec.exe → click OK

In summary, not a lot easier than just copying the source files to a appropriate directory and manually creating the shortcut.
