Description

The execution of scripts and programs from the user profile is prohibited by Group Policy, so that users can not run programs to hack the system.

How can I move a installation from Appdata \ local to the "program folder" or any other folder not in the user's profile?

Research direction

First confirm whether relocating the installation is supported and define the target-folder behavior; done requires a documented or implemented answer that works under the stated policy.
