Hello all!
I'm attempting to get the Arduino IDE 2.2.1 installed in all our classrooms and successfully able to be run by non-admin accounts, but unfortunately failing miserably to do so.
I can push out the .msi file with no issues, but when a non-admin user then goes to run the software, the IDE loads and begins to download additional components to their profile, and eventually hangs and, checking task manager, begins to spawn a seemingly endless series of driver intalls that crash the system and require a full hard restart. If I run it as an admin account, it works perfectly.
Is there a way I can get this to work in an academic setting with non-admin accounts? Or do we have to revert to the portable version of 1.8.19?
I have followed the user solution posted by MattiaB in this thread to no avail (the 2.2.1 IDE launches and hangs immediately with this method): Arduino IDE 2.0 RC - Silent Install
Does anybody else deploy to an academic setting with non-admin users?
