Bug ID: 144034
Summary: winget installation doesn't work due to missing admin
priviliges.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.2.0.4 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Installation
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: laslo.hausch...@web.de
Description:
Winget is the new package manager from Microsoft itself. LibreOffice can be
installed with cmd via 'winget install LibreOffice.LibreOffice'.
However, the installation fails with an error report file. The important line
in it is "MSI (s) (AC:0C) [13:35:52:268]: Product: LibreOffice 7.2.0.4 - The
installation wizard cannot run correctly because you do not have sufficient
administrator rights for this system under the user you are logged in as."
Long story short, the headless installer must show the admin guide on Windows
because there is no way to run it as a user as administrator. Running cmd in
admin mode does not work because winget is a command that can only be run by
normal users.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install winget
2.Run command 'winget install LibreOffice.LibreOffice'
Actual Results:
Output of command:
Found LibreOffice [LibreOffice.LibreOffice].
