I was searching on the web quite a while for a way to install android studio for windows without admin rights, but I didn't find a solution...

Does anyone know a way? (Please step by step)

I'm sure, many are searching for this...

Thanks! ;)
 
Ok, here is a step by step guide how to download Android Studio for Windows without admin rights:

1. Go here: https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html#downloads
2. Download the zip file which says "No Android SDK, no installer"
3. After that, open the downloaded zip file and open the folder "bin"
4. Then there should be a file called "studio64.exe" (or "studio32.exe") This is basically the launcher, so just click on it, and Android Studio will open! :-)

A helpful tip: If you want to create a shortcut to open Android Studio with one click, set zip files to always open with windows-explorer (you can't create shortcuts for winRAR)

Ok, hope this helped! ;) (Like if it did!)
