After using Windows Update to install the cumulative security update
KB896688, I found that whenever I went to the Windows Update site, it would not search for updates, it would say Administrators Only -- seemed to think I had Windows ME or XP. If I uninstalled the update, then I would no longer get the Administrators Only error. You may find some help in the posts on this topic, but I didn't find anything that worked. I got tech help from Microsoft, and after trying a number of things that didn't work, the registry script below fixed the problem. If you want to try it, copy the script, paste it in notepad, and save it as KB909889.reg Then run it. (You can save it on the desktop and double-click the icon if you want.) Note that line 1 for me is "REGEDIT4", the tech gave it to me as "Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00", but I guess I don't have that version of the reg. editor. Include the blank lines, and note there's a blank line after the end. Good luck! REGEDIT4 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0000031A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}] @="ClassMoniker" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0000031A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\InprocServer32] @="ole32.dll" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0000031A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\ProgID] @="clsid" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\CLSID] @="{0000031A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}" |
