Download methods and locations by user type

This section describes how and where the new Web-to-Host Control Module is downloaded for each user type.

Standard users

Users with standard user privileges and UAC enabled will not be prompted with a UAC window when downloading and installing the Web-to-Host Control Module. They will be prompted with standard security dialogs as before.

By default, the Web-to-Host Control Module will download and install only for that particular user. Each user of a machine must download and install their own Web-to-Host Control Module.

For standard users, the Web-to-Host Control Module will be downloaded to this location:

C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Downloaded Program Files\

Administrative users

By default, for administrative users, the Web-to-Host Control Module will work exactly that same way as before. The Web-to-Host Control Module will download and install for all users.

For administrative users, the Web-to-Host Control Module will be downloaded to this location:

C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files\

Administrative users have a choice at installation time whether to install the Web-to-Host Control Module for all users or just for themselves. Standard users do not have this choice.
