packager

About this tag
The packager tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about software packaging and distribution, particularly in the context of Windows applications. Topics include the rationale behind install options like "for all users" versus per-user installations, as well as tools and technologies such as Adobe AIR's packager for creating standalone executables on Windows, Mac, and Android. Conversations explore developer decisions, user control, and cross-platform packaging challenges.

    Why would a Windows developer/packager not provide the option to install-for-all-users

    Some applications can be installed "for all users" (from an admin account), and some can't. AFAIK, the availability of such option is a design on the side of the packager (or developer+packager?) Is there any rationale for a developer/packager not to provide that option, so the user decides?
