I have an issue when trying to install nRF Connect SDK on my work computer. I have installed VScode, the toolchain and the nRF Connect extension. The next step would be to install the nRF Connect SDK by clicking the manage SDK button and choosing the latest version. However, there seems to be some errors which I believe is due to not me being administrator. I tried to get IT to log in as admin and to do the install but it did not work for some reason. Hopefully it does not require me to have administrator privileges. Any help would be appreciated.
Finally here is the output when trying to install the nRF connect SDK (with manage SDKs):
