You can modify the registry without admin priviliges as HKCU rather than
HKLM.

There are reasons that not every user is allowed to install programs. If 
you don't have admin privileges your employer knows in most cases why.

I'm afraid we're going to just have to disagree fundamentally once again, 
Uwe. It's not the installer's business to enforce such policies. The 
current installer runs without admin priviliges; so should yours.

But anyway, HKLM is needed to get all third-party programs running and 
to work together. You also need it to be able to modify or completely 
remove programs via Windows Installed Applications list.

Lots and lots of stuff can be installed by a local user. It's more effort 
on the part of the installer writer, that's all.
