From b9a633178146429f3e6a83218e3de18d1895cf12 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nathan Letwory Date: Mon, 27 Dec 2010 12:42:51 +0000 Subject: By default install to the user profile instead of Program Files. This because right now the installer runs in user mode, not elevated to admin. Otherwise users can't install to the default which used to be Program Files, which causes more problems than necessary. Although unconventional location, probably currently a better solution. Network admins etc. can override install location on command-line. NSIS docs tell how. --- release/windows/installer/00.sconsblender.nsi | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'release/windows') diff --git a/release/windows/installer/00.sconsblender.nsi b/release/windows/installer/00.sconsblender.nsi index 1f2913f7f62..e5ebf8b2f64 100644 --- a/release/windows/installer/00.sconsblender.nsi +++ b/release/windows/installer/00.sconsblender.nsi @@ -70,7 +70,10 @@ UninstallIcon "[RELDIR]\00.installer.ico" Caption "Blender [VERSION] Installer" OutFile "[DISTDIR]\..\blender-[VERSION]-windows[BITNESS].exe" -InstallDir "$PROGRAMFILES[BITNESS]\Blender Foundation\Blender" +;InstallDir "$PROGRAMFILES[BITNESS]\Blender Foundation\Blender" +; Install to user profile dir.
