Tools: ImgBurn without Admin Permissions

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Recently ImgBurn was scripted to be deployed on to enterprise managed clients. Non of those clients have users as local administrators. With Nero you could install NeroRights to provide such privileges but with ImgBurn this is not possible. To solve this problem small GPO change locally or GPO in the domains can be done.
