Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin):
Operating System

I cannot update my origin lab. In Help tab,when I click on "check for updates" I get this message:"check for updates requires that you run origin as an administrator". In fact, I am the only administrator of my computer. There is no other user account configured.
My operatin system is Windows vista 32 bits and my laptop is HP compaq A900.

I need help!

In Windows Vista, you have to run Origin as Administrator even though you have already log in with an Administrator account. Please read the following for details:
