Also no admin privilege is needed to install local browser extensions, place a program into the users Autostart etc. | |

| Nov 15, 2016 at 8:47 | comment | added | Lumo5 | As far as I know the user is not able to run any executable without an administrative password, which they don't have. The user is a regular domain user with no privileges. This particular user also has very limited IT skills and likely would not be able to implement a hack such as an offline registry edit to access the local admin account. | |
