Windows 10 2H22 build 19045.3633
huh
You're right about the admin issue most likely
ive never seen that screen before lmao
I was able to run the program even with Administrator
I've also tried to give TrustedInstallers permissions [Probably the highest possible on Windows]
it doesn't make any difference
Do you get the "Dont' run this as admin" warning
when you try install it
Yeah
Yeah one sec
But yeah as i said it always worked even with that on, the administrator user doesn't force everything to run as admin
then go thru that
yeah gonna to
It's better if I try to make another user, it still warns me
Give me one moment
sure
Uhh there's one issue, since I've removed every single Microsoft bloatware that forced me to make an account for using windows I can't really make a normal account the ordinary way
It opens this window, I have to learn how to create another normal user account
I don't really have any other permissions issues with any other programs
Is there a way for installing it "Manually"?
Have you tied tried the dev build install?
Yeah essentially
try this as last resort
I'll check it, I'm first trying to adjust some stuff on my pc
npm i -g pnpm needs to be run in admin cmd then the rest needs to be non admin cmd
I've ran every command correctly, it still takes me to the normal launcher which doesn't work
Looks like that the only installation process that is able to do at least something is "./VencordInstallerCli.exe --install", unfortunately I can't really run anything as a normal user due to the fact that I use my PC on an Administrator account
I don't know if it actually means something, but the same issue doesn't occur with BetterDiscord or other modifications
Yeah vencord is built differently
Have you tried Vesktop?
yeah I tried it and it worked, but I don't really like the audio quality when screensharing
Ah yea that's fair
It kinda popped in and out
I'm willing to bet that it's the admin thing that's causing the issue
But if we cant work around that I'm really not sure
I don't know in which way since I've always used it with an admin account
And maybe it's not even an Admin rights problem, everything that runs inside an Admin account got administrator permissions if I'm not mistaken
Actually, i have an idea, what about trying an older version of the installer? Maybe the one that still had the trolley icon lmao
lmao yea could work
Looks like that I can't install older versions of Vencord since older releases got deleted
Should I submit this issue on github?
I doubt they'll leave it up
It's just bundled in with "we dont support admin install issues"
Ahw
I'll figure out how to make a normal user and hope the issue will be still there
@opal cairn I have some updates
I've discovered that when I install discord on my system it gets installed on a strange place [C:\ProgramData\Administrator] unlike on a normal windows [C:\Users\user\AppData\Local]
Ohhh
that is weird
does it work now though
I wonder why discord is here instead of the usual appdata local folder
Even if I change the directory it says the installation is broken
just because it is in a different place
I probably might know why it happens
The "ProgramData" folder is hidden
The installer is probably unable to manage a hidden folder or just gets confused over the fact it is on a different place
Bruh, I'm sorry if I wasted your time
No it's ok happy to help
<33
Do you have any knowledge about changing discord install place?
Oh I managed to just move it without any issue, vencord works!
okok
if you want to change that install issue you need to make a regedit
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
Double click "ProgramFilesDir" and change the value to where you want to install.
Where can I read about that?
Ahh
That lets you set the default
was yours already set to that?
Yeah
It's so confusing
I was comparing it with an original windows
and it's pretty much the same
u installed base discord as administrator so that's the path it defaults to
that's on a normal pc
so the patch couldnt find it
I've always used discord on administrator accounts
Maybe this time it changed its mind and installed on another place lol
I wonder why vencord doesn't support other directories tho lol
