| | Elevation required to install "Optional" updates Vista Business SP1 When I run as Standard User, I am able to install "Important" updates listed under Windows Updates. However, when trying to install "Optional" updates, I am prompted to elevate to Administrator. Is there some way to configure Vista so that "Optional" updates do not require elevation? Thanks. |

| Vista Business SP1 x64 | Re: Elevation required to install "Optional" updates No, because Optional are just that - Optional, and require the authorization of the Computer Administrator. |
