Jabber upgrade without admin priv

Gary Usyk — Mon, 18 Mar 2019 01:00:44 GMT

I'd like to see an auto update feature developed for Jabber for windows. Similar functionality to the AnyConnect client where admin privileges are not required for upgrades to occur after the initial install.

Hello Gary,

you can do this with a GPO (by MSI)

These links are very usefull:

Installing Software Using GPOs on Windows Server 2008

Assigning and Publishing Software: Group Policy

I hope everything is helpfull.

Do not hesitate to get back to me.

Regards

Hello Gary,

I realize that yours is an older post but many users still face this challenge, myself included. Rather than bouncing partial response ideas around, I have created one possible solution document here: https://community.cisco.com/t5/collaboration-voice-and-video/how-users-can-upgrade-jabber-for-windows-without-local-admin/ta-p/4060265

Obviously, there are many different ways one could approach this but this is how it has worked for me.

Hope this helps,

Matthias
