hi guys, i had setup two accounts on a pc. one with admin account and the other a standard user. i just noticed that windows update can't be installed automatically using the standard account. need to log-in as admin the can install the windows updates. is there any settings that the standard user accounts can also install the updates? thanks for any ideas.

Hi, By default, Windows only allows users with administrator user accounts to install updates. You can also allow users with standard user accounts to install updates. This can be convenient if you're using a family computer where most of the users have standard accounts for better Internet safety or parental control. You can choose to allow standard, non-administrator users to install updates manually with this option. To allow all users to install updates, follow these steps: 1.Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button . In the search box, type Update, and then, in the list of results, click Windows Update. 2.In the left pane, click Change settings. 3.Do one of the following: •To allow standard users to install updates, select the Allow all users to install updates on this computer check box. •To prevent standard users from installing updates, clear the Allow all users to install updates on this computer check box. If you use automatic updating for Important or Recommended updates, those updates are installed regardless of whether the current user is an administrator or not.
