What Worked For Me
I literally moved the application folder from my administrator account folders at C:\Users[MYUSERNAME]\AppData\Roaming[MYPROGRAMNAME] to C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming[MYPROGRAMNAME].
I did have to manually create the directory path C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming\ myself because it didn't exist.
Once I moved the program folder in there though, the program still ran on my administrator account just fine (which it always did), but what's even better: it now also ran just fine for my standard accounts without any additional effort!
I suppose I should state that I did also go back and login as my standard accounts and redirected the "Starts In" and "Target" fields for the program icon properties on their desktops so that they pointed instead to the C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming[MYPROGRAMNAME] folder. The software ran even before that, but I only took this step so that the program icon would match the image expected. But that was trivial. Everything was running fine at this point anyway, and ran fine afterwards too.
The application developers would have to offer this option in the installer. If the application is designed to only run in the User context, you would not be able to modify it effectively to run for all users. – music2myear – 2019-05-10T21:25:27.610
“Installation steps did not prompt in any way to make it available to all users.“ - Only an Administrator can install an application for all users. “How to I make this program available to all users, anything that involves not copying the full program to each user profile folders is appreciated.” - Are you the shortcut wasn’t created instead of the actual application being installed to the profile? Are you sure other users cannot run the application by manually starting the executable in the installation directory? Edit and clarify your question – Ramhound – 2019-05-10T22:02:48.567
Installed using administrator account. The full application was installed in C:\Users\XYZAdminUser\AppData\Local\Programs\scratch-desktop\ – Binoj Antony – 2019-05-11T07:25:12.447
I think that the fact that the app was installed in your XYZAdminUser's private AppData folders is what causes the issue; see my proposed solution below which worked for me. – ShieldOfSalvation – 2019-08-12T16:31:10.360
