installing messenger 8.1 to different location by nir333 on 11-29-2008 at 03:41 PM

Hello

I want to install messenger 8.1 to different location, other then the default but the
installation doesn't ask where I want to install.
I must install it to another location because I don't have admin rights on the
"C:\program files" folder on the computer I want to install.

Any ideas?

Thanks

You can't install it on a different location.;)

Are you sure there is no way?

Is it too complicated for Microsoft to do that option?!

I don't know how but I'm sure you can change the location.
