Install Hero Lab as a standard user (not administrator)

I know I have seen this in the forums before, but it is there a way to install Hero Lab to a user directory rather than %ProgramFiles%?

Not everyone has administrative privileges or permissions to that directory. Hero Lab install never gives the option to change the location and it says it requires administrator rights to install.
 
Hero Lab uses a standard Windows installer - it shouldn't need to be installed as administrator, and you can install it to whatever folder you want. You'll need to accept the warning Windows gives you for "Are you sure you want to run this strange thing?", but that's a normal behavior on all the windows apps I'm familiar with.

If that doesn't help, can you tell me about the exact problem you're running into with Hero Lab? Do you get an error message? If so, what's the message, and when is it displayed during the installation?
