Running steam off a USB drive

So im trying to run steam off a USB drive so i can play games on my colleges computers. It works with other none school computers, but as soon as I try on a school computer an error alway show."Steam is not properly installed on this computer. Steam service needs to run elevated privileges to repair system setting", what do i do to get pass this problem?

9 chances out of 10, you do not have administrator privileges on the college computers. This is mainly due to security and to prevent people from installing/running software that the college does not deem suitable.Cdscottie

Nope, cannot be done. Steam needs to be installed on a permanent storage device. You cant just install it on your home computer and copy the files onto a flash drive.Iantheone
