    Silverlight Update in Restricted users?

    Mar 04, 2008 11:37 AM | LINK

    Hi all,

     

    I'm trying to deploy Silverlight in my client network. The problem is most of the users are of Restricted type ( ie. No modify/write permissions in Silverlight's install folder).

    In such a scenario How'll the update behave?

    On Vista, the update will recognize Silverlight patches as signed, and will perform the update regardless of the current user's permissions.

    If having up to date Silverlight installation is important for your network, you may want to consider using WSUS http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/wsus/default.aspx .
