- administrators only error, can't install update
- Posted by Tracy on August 13th, 2003
Help! I have tried to fix this by:
changing the permissions in the WindowsUpdate file
changing the proxy exception list in IE
enabling HTTP 1.1 in IE
and using the command prompt to rename the catroot2 file.
Still, I am unable to install the update. Anyone have
any better ideas?
Thanks in advance!

What operating system are you using? Did you try the steps listed in the
Troubleshooter?
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/troubleshoot/
Try:
Manual installation instructions for Windows Update controls
When trying to use the Windows Update Web site you receive an
"Administrators Only" error message (Windows XP only)
Thanks,
