Silent automatic update requires administrator privileges

What I read silent automatic update functionality is supposed to use the system account, then the user may be a non-admin and it will update always silently in the background. However, users receive the following error message to appear:

Adobe Flash Player 11.7 Setup

The installation has encountered any errors:

You must have administrator privileges to install Adobe Flash Player. Please log on with administrative privileges and try again.

I configured the file mms.cfg as follows:

SilentAutoUpdateEnable = 1

AutoUpdateDisable = 0

Any ideas why this happens? Would like a way to get in mode silent auto update to the latest version of flash, even if the user is admin no, since all our users perform as such. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

So, I realized what is happening. Silent update creates a scheduled task, but the task scheduler has been disabled on all our computers. This is why silent updater was not working and was instead just using the standard update control. You can close this case. Thank you.

    Duncan, assuming that you are connected to an account that requires administrator privileges, then please try to temporarily disable your user account control.

    If you continue to receive the same error so I would recommend creating a new local administrator account and trying to update the applications there.

  • Flash update request despite the silent automatic update enabled in MMS messages. CFG

    This is in regards to Windows 32 - bit Flash Player Activex.  Version 14.0.0.145

    We have silent automatic updates enabled for 15000 Windows 7 computers.  Sometimes non-admin users are encouraged to update when Adobe releases a new version, such as 14.0.0.176.  WHY?  WHY?  WHY?

    Here's our MMS. CFG that we use in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MACROMED\FLASH

    AutoUpdateDisable = 0

    SilentAutoUpdateEnable = 1

    SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging = 1

    AutoUpdateInterval = 0

    Hi Bob,

    Now we are in what we consider a a statement of "strong".  The automatic update silent, which currently grows 14.0.0.145, will be updated at 14.0.0.176 within 45 days of the 8/12.

    To stop the dialog box notification of the event with your users, I highly recommend a look at the chapter that Maria mentioned in his post.  It's really the easiest way to ensure that your users are always up-to-date with the latest version without user interaction.

    Thank you

    Chris

    PS. You can also delete AutoUpdateInterval = 0 of your mms.cfg settings.  It's a little confusing, but whatever it is preceded by "AutoUpdate" refers really to our update notification, not the automatic update silent dialogue.

  • Silent automatic update of flash player does not

    I was happy to read the news on the new Adobe Flash player silent auto update feature, but unfortunately this does not work on my machine. All the world had the same problems and was able to resolve?

    Some information about my setup:

    I had already installed Flash player, version 11.1.102.63, ActiveX version and plugins (installed in the .msi files, deployed through Active Directory/GPO - no additional configuration, simply .msi original files).

    To test the automatic update feature, I decided to install the 11.2.202.228 new version, but only the ActiveX version. I installed this via the installer .exe (install_flash_player_11_active_x_32bit.exe) manually, choose ' Install updates automatically when they are available (recommended) "in the last step of the installation, as shown here:

    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/background-Updater-Windows.html

    When I open Control Panel-> Flash Player, on the 'Advanced' tab I see:

    • "Install updates automatically" is selected but grayed out (without right to admin with this windows user)
    • ActiveX version: 11.2.202.228
    • Plugin version: 11.1.102.63

    The "mms.cfg" under C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\ file contains:

    AutoUpdateDisable = 0

    SilentAutoUpdateEnable = 1

    The task of "Adobe Flash Player Updater" has been created and is scheduled to run every hour. I see that it is started ('last start time'), the result code is 0x0, which means "no error".

    So, just as expected. But the automatic update does not work, since the flash player plugin version is never updated!

    I edited the "mms.cfg" and added:

    SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging = 1

    After manually from the task, there are a few lines added to "FlashInstall.log" in the same directory:

    What does that mean?

    More information:

    • Windows XP SP3, install all windows updates, German
    • Software antivirus Avira Security Professional
    • Machine is behind a proxy server, but it is set up in the control panel-> Internet Options

    I guess that there is a problem with our proxy server. The automatic update does not use the proxy information, the settings of the Windows Control Panel?

    Hi Steve,.

    This error is probably due to the fact that you have selected "Require client certificates" on your Web server. Please untick this and try again. If you still see errors, please post a new log with the error codes after you make this change.

  • Errors of installation of programs that require administrator privileges - ON a user administrator account

    I don't necessarily get coverage error messages (and in some cases I don't get any other error message that the computer tells me an error has occurred), but when I try to install/load of programs that are based on the internet (Viewer gotomypc, photo uploader facebook, other programs uploader, etc.) I can not install the program, unless I have save the file on my computer then right click on the file and select "Run as Administrator" When my user account is the main account on my PC.

    My account shows that it is an admin acocunt, so it's not as if this has been changed.

    I can't pin-point when this started to happen, but it lasts for quite awhile - maybe since the latest service pack installed...?

    This is the normal way to solve any problems with the installation of programs > download/save to the desktop > right - click > run as admin.

  • Windows Vista does not work for all programs requiring administrator rights

    I have Windows Vista Business SP1 on a Dell XPS laptop. He worked from 3-4 years. It seems that after a recent update (in the last week), I rebooted the laptop and after that Vista can not run programs that require administrator privileges. This includes most of the items in the Panel, the observer of events, computer management, elevated command prompt and so on.

    After logging in, I get a notification of the task bar that says "Windows cannot connect to the customer service group policy."

    When I try to any program requiring administrative privileges (for example, msconfig), I get an error "Windows cannot find C:\Windows\system32\msconfig.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again"

    I restored the system (from safe mode) for a day where it seems to be ok, but the problem remains.

    The sound in the system tray icon is a trademark of the Red Cross on it, but sounds work ok.

    Analyses of virus through McAfee (all installed updates and latest virus definitions) showed no signs of the virus.

    As already mentioned in the original post, System Restore does not resolve the problem. I got to the new vista installation to fix the problem. Some windows updates and reboot after applying the update seems to be the cause.

  • Loss of administrative privileges

    Three days ago I had an episode of blue screen and the computer off without apparent reason. I was surfing on the web for info on the saga of the NFL for the year. The computer took his time to reboot, and as has happened a few times before I get a little note saying that I had a crisis and if I wanted an attempt would be made to find out why. I don't have. Everything seemed OK until I went to remove a program that was not working properly and I was told that I didn't have the credentials to do so. I could not do much since. I tried to run * Cleaner, Spybot Search and Destroy and we tried to restore to an earlier time. I can't access the restore cannot run msconfig, are unable to safe mode on the startup until cannot change or add the use of names, etc. I was not able to run the Malware bytes or any other program anti-malware in safe mode. CC and Spybot S & S do not work properly. When I look at 'properties' in the users file it says I am BOTH with all the privileges, but it happens. I'm about to hammer this machine into oblivion with a hammer and mail back to Hewlett Packer parts. Suggestions of others and the more rational would be very appreciated.

    Because finally heard form you I have disconnected all drives and even printers and can't in safe mode. I tried the F8 key and several other than links and I stay locked. everything that's happened has disabled CCleaner and Spybot find and remove as well. I can't run msconfig, or do anything else that requires administrator privileges. I'm trying to figure out Trinity Rescue Kit and windows Password Recovery tool to see if I can approach it that way and get my privileges. Then I can remove programs and get cleaned up.

    Greetings,

    It is now January 19 and I get since Seahawk Championship game. Fortunately, I solved my problem by using the Trinity of password. Here's how and here is a small tutorial that I used toguide me:

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=AsV4mzurr6U

    Interestingly, when I arrived at the Stadium featuring accounts, he showed an administrator account protected by a password that had never shown up on top of my screen and my account, also with a password, but I didn't do it password protected when my problems began. I removed the two passwords and restarted. Two accounts jumped upwards, a named Administrator, and one with my name as before. Both are now the administrative accounts, which allows full access to the computer. He behaves badly you can use the other to shape. I cleaned the computer and removed several programs, and now is running as it should and much more quickly. I don't know whence the passwords. I suspect a virus but scans with several programs have not found anything.

    I was afraid to go into the bowels of my computer, but if you follow the instructions carefully it's a piece of cake and it was a great find. I hope this helps someone else, because I think that I am not alone with this kind of problem.

    Also thanks to Microsoft to provide forums like this one, where brilliant and helpful people volunteer their time to help those of us a bit more disputed.
