How to install software for one user only
Hi all, I'm a Linux user (Ubuntu) but the wife has a Windows 7 laptop. In Linux one can install software as a regular user to his own ~/bin (like Program Files in Windows) and that software cannot affect other users of the computer (they cannot run it, and it cannot mess with the system configuration). How is this done in Windows? The kids have some games that they want to install but I don't really trust the software. So I don't want to install it as Admin because that would let the software pretty much do as it pleases to the system (install malware, for instance). I don't care if the kids' account gets malware, I can just erase their C:\users\kids account and be done with it.
Thanks.
