Runing Visual Studio as admin - Resharper does not load.

Answered

Our Company does not allow us to have local admin rights.  So When we need to interact with a local running service we need to run VS as administrator while we are writing code, which is a different account.  When we do ReSharper does not load.  Any chance that this will be rectified?  we are using the same machine and the same developer.

By default, ReSharper installer executes "per user" installation, so it means that ReSharper will be installed for current user only.

So there a couple of ways to install it for "admin" user as well:

1) As Andreas already mentioned, you might execute "All Users" installation: https://resharper-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206545259-How-do-I-install-ReSharper-for-All-Users-on-current-PC-

2) Run ReSharper Installation with admin credentials to install it for "admin" user. 

Thanks! 

I think currently it's only possible if you install R# for all users. You can set this in the Options dialog of the setup.

The options dialog on setup for all users is disabled. It has a comment saying something about some application must be installed under user profile.  Running the installation under the admin credentials worked.
