All versions of GIMP are fully compatible with limited users - all
configuration is saved in user's home directory, and GIMP doesn't need to
write anywhere else.

Windows 7, yes.


It runs OK in a non-admin id on XP.

We are trying to use GIMP in one of our online learning classes.  I am 
trying to verify if GIMP 2.6 is Windows7  compatible and will run on a 
computer whose users are not administrators.   Will  it run on 
computers with local user right set as power users?




Windows 7, yes.

I have honestly never run it as a non admin, but I have no reason to 
think it won't run...installation may be a different problem though.


On windows computers I don't have admin rights, I just put the portable 
version of Gimp on it. This can be found here it's useful to you:

We are trying to use GIMP in one of our online learning classes.  I am
trying to verify if GIMP 2.6 is Windows7  compatible and will run on a
computer whose users are not administrators.   Will  it run on computers
with local user right set as power users?

 

I appreciate the input.

 

Thanks.
