If they; 1) have NX installed 2) have UGII env var’s (given below) set and 3) want the associative interface installed/configured. Using the -ug will install the associative interface if NX and the env var’s are set otherwise it will install the reader. # To allow non-administrative users to run, you will need to define the environment variable UGII_CUSTOM_DIRECTORY_FILE prior to running the command and specify a location where other users have read access. Alternatively, you can run the Product & CAD Configuration Manager after the installation and provide an updated location for the NX Custom Directory File Path under the NX tab. # UGII Environment Variables: UGII_BASE_DIR to Full path to NX installation UGII_CUSTOM_DIRECTORY_FILE to %APPDATA%ANSYSv194Unigraphicscustom_dirs.dat UGII_ROOT_DIR environment variable must be set to the ugii subdirectory in the install path of the NX version to be launched.
