Is it possible to instantly deploy a certain piece of software by creating a GPO in Active Directory? I realize it's possible to do this but only after rebooting the computer, and that is something we don't always want to do, especially since some of the software I want to deploy on servers.
What are the options?
One thing to note is that most of our users do NOT have admin rights as I am talking not only about servers but also about workstations in the classrooms.

No. Iti s not - first, the clients have to ask for the group policy, and they update only every x hours.
For non - admins - no real solution exists. Immediate software distribution is mostly an administrative oversight (except in special cases).
