------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed May 16 21:34:28 +0000 2007 ------- Why not? That is a silly statement, anyway - the Multi-User Installer *itself* *requires* Admin Rights... so why is *that* ok, but not to have a related function that also requires it? Besides - if OOo can be installed as an ordinary user, then it can manipulate file associations as that ordinary user in the same way. It does so *now*, doesn't it? This isn't rocket science... it is very simple... OOo allows for installation on a Windows machine in two different modes: Multi-user (requires Admin Rights) or for Single User. If OOo can correctly set the file associations at install time, for each of these two modes, it should be able to MANAGE these changes as well. It should be smart enough to know *how* it was installed (as an Admin, for 'All Users', or as a normal user, only for that user). The FAM should then behave in accordance with how it was installed - meaning: 1. If it was installed by an Admin in Multi-user mode, then it should require Admin rights to manipulate File Associations - just like it requires Admin Rights to install/uninstall it. 2. If it was installed in Single-User mode, then the FAM should behave accordingly (however OOo handles single user installation File Association modifications currently). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
