I have just installed PB 6.02 and it won't launch, the error is:
error while loading shared libraries: libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
but I can see libz.so.1 is in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ so that's not the real error.
Does anybody have any ideas?

** edit **
Just ignore me, I'd downloaded the 32 bit version :oops:

Great news!
Note that, I was able to install "PureBasic 6.02 beta 2" onto current user by a command line switch to setup, no admin rights were necessary. But with PureBasic 6.02 LTS, it requires admin rights even with /CURRENTUSER argument.

I would be rather surprised if a setup can be installed without requiring admin rights.

I install most applications for my user only, if they support. They installed into C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\<folder>
And it was supported in PB 6.02 Beta 2 setup.
I'm also sure that I read somewhere in this forum (in a changelog IIRC) it IS fixed to support that mode, but cannot find it.

Even my current installation is at C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Programs\PureBasic.

I've used InnoSetup to install non-admin apps for the last 7 years.

Innosetup is inverted for 6,0x version in order to maintain XP compatibilty (thats probably reason for non admin rights)

According to fred will be again at version 6,10 , a a version who will drop XP support

If you choose to install only for you, it install in your private appdata folder. To use the C backend, you need to add it in the compilers (in IDE preferences -> Compilers -> add)
So, clearly there is something missed here.
With /CURRENTUSER we should be able to use non administrative install mode.

In the setup project, PrivilegesRequiredOverridesAllowed setting should either commandline or dialog. Default is blank which prevents non-admin install mode. Also PrivilegesRequired should be lowest, default is admin. https://jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php ... nstallmode

I hope this fixed soon, as my company policy doesn't allow me to install any application.

This issue is not fixed yet on 6.03 LTS :cry:
I'm stuck using 6.02 Beta because it is the only version that support non-admin installation mode, and my company don't allow to install any app that requires admin rights. I know.. it sucks, but it is what it is.

So, just install PureBasic at home, copy its folder to a USB stick, take that stick to work and copy the files to your company PC. It'll run.

Also may be convenient to copy folder '%APPDATA%\Purebasic' , for the preferences.
