Description
In our enterprise environment, we do not have administrative access to local systems.
For any developer installation, we are required to use https://www.adminbyrequest.com/ (Workstation Edition 8.7.1) to obtain temporary elevated privileges.
To manage software installations for developers, we use https://chocolatey.org/.
We attempted to install RDM using the following command:
choco install rdm --version 2026.1.16
This package has a dependency on:
https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/dotnet-10.0-desktopruntime
However, the .NET Desktop Runtime cannot be installed.
The log output is as follows:

Reproduction Steps
- System without Admin access and "Admin by request" Setup
- Open Cmd as Admin
choco install dotnet-10.0-desktopruntime --version 10.0.7
=> Dont Work
To exclude choco:
- System without Admin access and "Admin by request" Setup
- Open Cmd as Admin (admin by reqquest)
windowsdesktop-runtime-10.0.7-win-x64.exe /install /norestart /log "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\chocolatey\dotnet-10.0-desktopruntime-test.log"
=> Dont work
Expected behavior
- System without Admin access and "Admin by request" Setup
- Open cmd as Admin (admin by request)
windowsdesktop-runtime-10.0.6-win-x64.exe /install /quiet /norestart /log "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\chocolatey\dotnet-10.0-desktopruntime-test.log"
=> Install suceesfull
Actual behavior
Get an error (Installer cant elevate the sub process)
Regression?
https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/dotnet-9.0-desktopruntime worked fine.
Known Workarounds
- open cmd without admin
windowsdesktop-runtime-10.0.7-win-x64.exe /install /norestart /log "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\chocolatey\dotnet-10.0-desktopruntime-test.log"- Let the AdminbyByRequest elevate
=> Works
In this setup, we are unable to install the runtime as part of the Chocolatey package execution. As a result, the dependency cannot be fulfilled, which prevents the successful installation of RDM.
