Installing IQAN Design 7 software issues

Jeff huntington 2 weeks ago in IQANdesign • updated by Torbjörn Andreasson (Product manager) 2 weeks ago • 2

Having issues installing IQANdesign 7 software. When our local IT admins are installing this software, it is not actually installing it on the C drive. Is there a way to change the install location?

IQANdesign have a command line argument to be used by administrators if they want to install it somewhere that differs from the default installation path. Installing in the default path doesn't require administrator privileges.

Default path:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\IQANdesign <version>

Change path:

/DIR="x:\dirname"
Overrides the default installation directory name. A fully qualified pathname must be specified.

This problem also occurs with us. In this way, an IT administrator cannot install programs for a user. With us, a user does not have installation rights by default. The new setup is quite inconvenient for us. Hopefully, a solution can be found for this.
