Hi Zain,

Progress Control Panel requires administrative privileges by design because many of its operations make system-level changes, primarily through Windows Installer (MSI) installations and updates.

Because of this, there is currently no supported way to run Progress Control Panel as a standard user or disable the elevation requirement.
