For Money 2005 and 2006, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929427
and apply that Vista update.

Be sure that your Money and backup files are moved to a spot that
you will have full privileges to, such as Documents/MyDocuments.
If they are in a place like ProgramFiles, Vista will create an
impermanent copy of the file for the user to use, unless the user
explicitly right-clicks at launch and choose RunAsAdminsistrator
that time.

Check that the SSL2 protocol is enabled. That checkbox may be in
IE Tools-> InternetOptions-> Advanced.

Right-click the Money icon and choose RunAsAdmistrator to let
updates happen. Then reboot the computer.

Hello Cal,

Thank you so much for replying to my message and for your help. My Money
file is in My Document\Document folder.

I started Money the way you told me by right clicking on the icon and
choose RunAsAdmistrator. That worked perfectly! It updated my Money program
and allowed me to open my file I used on my other computer. I guess whenever
I get the message there is an update I can do what you told me to update the
Money program. I can't thank you enough for the help. I really appreciate it.

I checked to see if the SSL2 protocol was enabled and it was already checked.

I hope you have a great weekend!

Take care,
Jim

Be sure that your Money and backup files are moved to a spot that
you will have full privileges to, such as Documents/MyDocuments.
If they are in a place like ProgramFiles, Vista will create an
impermanent copy of the file for the user to use, unless the user
explicitly right-clicks at launch and choose RunAsAdminsistrator
that time.

Check that the SSL2 protocol is enabled. That checkbox may be in
IE Tools-> InternetOptions-> Advanced.

Right-click the Money icon and choose RunAsAdmistrator to let
updates happen. Then reboot the computer.

Default Can't update Money 2005, keeps asking for Administrator.

Hello,

I am trying to update my Microsoft Money 2005 program, my operating system
is Vista Home Premium. Here is the message I am getting:

“An update is available for your Money software. To install this update, you
must be logged on as a member of the Administrator group.

Log off Windows, and then log back on as a member of the Administrators
group. Restart this program to install the update. For more information, see
Windows Help.”

My problem is I am signed in as an Administrator and I am the only user on
this computer. I thought the problem was that I did not assign a user
password for signing in so I tried that. This did not work. I have tried
updating by using the sample.mny file, a new file and a file created on
another program. Can someone help me with my problem? I would deeply
appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks, Jim
