Hi David Mizrahi and Ganubar, we modified the installer to hopefully resolve this issue. Could you try re-installing Hedy using this updated installer to see if it lets you install it without admin rights?

Thanks for flagging this! Strange indeed, and I completely agree that it shouldn't require admin rights to install correctly.

Ganubar

I got the same thing, you need to give the installer admin rights. Alternatively, you can add a shortcut to the startup folder.

Ganubar That's good to know! Thank you. I still think it is a bit of a bug, and should be fixed. But those are just my thoughts.
