 +<note tip>To install X2Go Client without admin rights (and without a start menu entry or an entry in "add/remove programs"): 
 + 
 +  - Open the X2Go Client setup.exe in an archive manager such as 7-zip. 
 +  - Extract all the contents to a new folder of your choosing. Let's assume this folder is called "x2goclient"
 +  - Move the "pulse" and "VcXsrv" folders from under x2goclient\$_OUTDIR\ to directly under x2goclient\ . 
 +  - Delete the x2goclient\$PLUGINSDIR\ folder and the x2goclient\$_OUTDIR\ folder. 
 +  - Once finished, your main folder should have dozens of files directly in it, the "pulse" subfolder, and the "VcXsrv" subfolder.
