Hi - We're not on a domain controller or anything but we are running Windows 7 Pro. &nbsp;I was wondering if it's possible to allow standard users to install programs. &nbsp;I was looking in the local group policy and I'm not sure which one would allow it.<br />
<br />
I tried putting them into a power user group but that didn't help.<br />
<br />
Thanks- Zack
