Description
### Enhancement Description
Is it necessary for this plugin installer to require admin privilages? I imagine that it could just copy the necessary files to user's local appdata. Alternatively could we provide instructions for users to manually copy necessary files to their appdata directory?
### Revit Version
2024.0.x
### IFC for Revit Addon Version
24.x.x
### Windows Version

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the plugin installer and the files it places for the Revit 2024 add-on. Check whether installation can target the user's local AppData without administrator privileges, and document any manual-copy path if it cannot. Done means a non-admin installation works or the required manual instructions are provided and verified on Windows 11.
