Installing C::B 13.12 with no admin rights
« on: January 30, 2014, 11:12:01 am »
Hello,
I'd like to install Code::Blocks 13.12 in a computer where I have no admin rights. The former version of C::B had a specific installer to fix this issue.
It seems to be no user installer for version 13.12, does anybody know why?
Thanks for you help.

Because nobody asked for it so far.

What you can always do: Install C::B on a machine with proper right, then ZIP the folder and simply extract it to another PC. There are no hidden settings you need to do. Then you can safely uninstall the source C::B.

Let me know if that is helpful.

First of all, thank you for you suggestion Morten, I think your solution will work: my workstation will be upgraded from Windows XP (with full admin rights) to Windows 7 Enterprise as power user.
At home I don't have windows powered computers, so I have no idea how I will upgrade later on, but I have a lot of time to think about it.

Is it possible to ask the development team for a zipped version of C::B instead of the user installer?

I've done that on BerliOS here:
http://prdownload.berlios.de/codeblocks/codeblocks-13.12-nosetup.zip

On SF it will be up soon, too here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/codeblocks/files/Binaries/13.12/Windows/codeblocks-13.12-nosetup.zip

Note that this release does not include a compiler, its the plain C::B.
