Installer built by Inno Setup and SPAWNWND, NOTIFYWND parameters on UAC window

Inno Setup 6 has a built-in support for non-administrative install mode.

Basically, you can simply set PrivilegesRequiredOverridesAllowed:

[Setup]
PrivilegesRequiredOverridesAllowed=commandline dialog

The following is my (now obsolete) solution for Inno Setup 5, based on @TLama's answer.

When the setup is started non-elevated, it will request elevation, with some exceptions:

• Only on Windows Vista and newer (though it should work on Windows XP too)
• When upgrading, the setup will check if the current user has a write access to the previous installation location. If the user has the write access, the setup won't request the elevation. So if the user has previously installed the application to user folder, the elevation won't be requested on upgrade.

If the user rejects the elevation on a new install, the installer will automatically fall back to "local application data" folder. I.e. C:UsersstandardAppDataLocalAppName.

Other improvements:

• the elevated instance won't ask for language again
• by using PrivilegesRequired=none, the installer will write uninstall information to HKLM, when elevated, not to HKCU.

#define AppId "myapp"
#define AppName "MyApp"

#define InnoSetupReg 
  "SoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall" + AppId + "_is1"
#define InnoSetupAppPathReg "Inno Setup: App Path"

AppId={#AppId}
PrivilegesRequired=none

You can try this program Inno Setup Unpacker

http://innounp.sourceforge.net/

It is not official, but it may work with your .exe file and may restore something from it.

Files other than .iss you can get just by installing your exe file.
