O.P. Install Messenger Plus without Admin Privileges, hehe
Hi!
Is there a way to manually install msgplus on a pc without admin privileges ![(6)](images/smilies/msn_demon.gif) (can only write to My Documents, and can't modify windows registry ). There must be some way to manually install it and not have to touch the windows registry. ![:(](images/smilies/msn_sad.gif)
Please help! Thanks
Bye

I don't think so.
Every setting that Plus! saves is in the registry.
This included your setting and the setting that you set for your contacts.

I could do a little something to help, hoever, it would be limitated to not writing anything in LocalMachine. The path of installation can be changed in Custom Installation mode. Is your only issue with accessing HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE from your account? normally, you should be able to access HKEY_CURRENT_USER without any problem, even if your account is limited.

What would I have to do Patchou if I am able to access HKEY_CURRENT_USER? (I'll have to check on monday if I do have access to HKEY_CURRENT_USER... ![;)](images/smilies/msn_wink.gif) ).
Thanks!

Well, if you have access to this key, I'll add a special setting so that keys I load in LocalMachien are loaded in CurrentUser instead, that will solve your problem ![:)](images/smilies/msn_happy.gif) .
