Is there a programmatic way to determine if the user has sufficient local rights to update the registry (HKLM\SOFTWARE\MYPRODUCT) and create/modify a local file (C:\Program Files\MyProductDir)?
I've written my own custom installer. I'd like to perform these tests before installation begins, without having to determine if the user is logged in as ADMINISTRATOR.
