[racket] Can Racket be installed under superuser (su) for administrative access to all directories?

I'm pretty sure you don't (need to) install it under superuser, you run it
as superuser.

On linux/unix I'm pretty sure you can just use 'sudo'. - you can probably
just copy the launcher configuration from another privileged app.

On windows you can use the 'runas'

e.g.

C:\Users\sdegabrielle>runas /user:administrator "C:\Program
Files\Racket-Full-5.3.4.11\DrRacket.exe"
Enter the password for administrator:
Attempting to start C:\Program Files\Racket-Full-5.3.4.11\DrRacket.exe as
user "HEDGEHOG\administrator" ...

C:\Users\sdegabrielle>


Then check in task manager

Replace your own administrator user name and path.



Cheers,

Stephen
