Hi,
Are there studios out there that run XSI on Windows workstations where
users are not administrator? (ie power users)
I refuse to run any software that requires admin rights (other than admin
software of course). XSI runs fine as a limited uer.
Right now everyone here is local administrator. Obviously this is less
than ideal, as user has full control of its machine. We'd like to make
them power user, however XSI needs a few extra permissions to operate
properly (like modifying the registry, like for shaders (XSI 4.2), and
the Net View).
So anyone knows what needs to be done to run XSI under a "power user"
account?
We run limited user accounts. I believe all we do is set C:\users\<user>
to have full control by the user. Then the user has write perms to the
workgroup for installing stuff, but this is not required (I don't think).
