Title: Deploying Addin using ClickOnce Security and Deployment
Post by: adepreter on February 28, 2018, 03:28:55 am

Does anybody know whether it is possible to deploy an add-in using ClickOnce Security and Deployment?
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/visualstudio/deployment/clickonce-security-and-deployment (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/visualstudio/deployment/clickonce-security-and-deployment)

The goal is to
- enable users to install an add-in without admin rights
- update the add-in automatically when it has changed

Cheers,
Alain

It is possible to install an add-in without admin rights.
We recently had a topic about that on the forum discussing different possible solutions.
The biggest hurdle is registering the class(es) in the dll for COM interop.

Hi,

you find at https://github.com/Helmut-Ortmann/EnterpriseArchitect_hoTools/wiki/AddInWithoutAdmin (https://github.com/Helmut-Ortmann/EnterpriseArchitect_hoTools/wiki/AddInWithoutAdmin) an article about non admin install of EA Add-Ins.

There you find descriptions, code and links to relevant documents.

Best regards,

Helmut
