Add support for installing portables without developer mode and running as admin

Open ryfu-msft opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Resolves #2368

Changes:

  • Handles the scenario for installing a portable where a user does not have developer mode enabled or is not running as admin by skipping the symlink creation step and adding the exe directly.

Tests:

  • Adds E2E tests to verify that this scenario is supported as expected.
