&lt;p&gt;II don&amp;#39;t intent to come off smug here.&amp;nbsp; &amp;#39;m a proponent of the &amp;quot;as a service&amp;quot; model as it allows for frequent updates and I think the connected software and frequent updates are the right direction.&amp;nbsp; However as it stands now, I think the connected software approach is being setup to fail in enterprises that require admin rights.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Please re-code the Connect Client so it does not require admin rights for upgrades</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/481430?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 13 Sep 2018 17:21:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:c583afd9-f694-40bd-a9f3-ed9f029c049c</guid><dc:creator>AndyKing-Pit</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;What I am hoping for&amp;nbsp;is confirmation this is being passed along to the development/product team for consideration.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;d prefer to have someone at Bentley weigh in on a timeline of when to expect this change.&amp;nbsp; I think such a change will help Bentley to be most successful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Please re-code the Connect Client so it does not require admin rights for upgrades</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/481429?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 13 Sep 2018 17:05:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:23aacc71-b1de-4e2e-95c2-da3637e9c868</guid><dc:creator>Scott Soper</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Firstly - Tamicca, the OP understands that all apps require admin rights - that&amp;#39;s pretty much the point of his request.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Secondly, the OP&amp;#39;s points about the updates not always having positive effects is probably THE reason not to allow them to auto-install.
