Client Authentication Agent

Jon Eyre

Hi

I have a windows standard user that i am trying to install the agent for.

He does not have the rights to install.

I install using administrator creds. Problem is it installs in the administrators appdata folder not the standard users. At that time it grants access after logging into the agent.

BUT when the machine is restarted the agent is never going to autorun as it is in the wrong users startup.

 

It seems it is impossible to use the agent for a standard user, useless

    Hi Jon,

    What happens when you change the install path during the initial installation? So if the agent is installed in c:/users/admin/applog/sophos/etc then change the user path with c:/users/xyzuser/applog/sophos/etc.

    Please update me if that helps.

    Thanks

    Hi

    OK, tried that not with good results.

    Seems to install but does not run on completion as it should do, Also it is not there in startup.

    Using Windows 10 build 1703 64bit.

    Even though the administrator has to ok the install with credentials it should install under the logged in users profile, that is the way it works for every other program.
