  • It sounds like you're trying to install something to the currently logged-in user's profile. To do that using the System account is inordinately harder than using self-healing (if you're deploying an MSI) or Active Setup. - anonymous_9363 10 years ago

  • as far as i know there is no env variable to do it, the only thing i can image to work is to combine %USERDOMAIN%\%USERNAME% - anonymous_89761 10 years ago
