The other thing you can do is try running the software from the Start Menu. &nbsp;It may make the required adjustments at that time and place a working shortcut on the desktop. See if that works.

Does the user have to be an admin to do the install? &nbsp;If so, after the install, can I change them back to a standard user and the application will still work?

I was able to install the software under the user although they are not an admin. &nbsp;I'll have to figure out later why a non-admin can do installs but glad I'm can continue for now. &nbsp;Thanks for your help!

Software access for local user

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.

Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system featuring the "universal application architecture" (UAP); apps can be designed to run across multiple devices with nearly identical code, including PCs, tablets, smartphones, embedded systems, Xbox One, Surface Hub and HoloLens. Windows 10 also includes a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, voice-based search (Cortana), new security features for enterprise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games.
