Deploying software as a local user with no admin rights

We have an app that needs to be deployed as the local user but we're working to take local admin rights off the workstations. Is there a way this can be done?

Michael,

You could try integrating your PDQ Deploy with LAPS and then deploy as the local LAPS user on each workstation:

I've never done it but it's possible in theory.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "we're working to take local admin rights off the workstations"? As in you don't want to have local accounts that are administrators or you don't want any user accounts (even AD accounts) to be members of the workstations' local "administrators" group?
