Default Auto install plugins - Admin Required

I'd like to have PT auto-install all the plugins that need updating but it requires Admin credentials. I'm putting in my username and password into the Avid App Manager but it keeps saying Username is not administrator user.

I also tried my windows admin name, but that too, doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Default Re: Auto install plugins - Admin Required

I just figured it out. In Windows 10, the username IS the Microsoft Account name. I recall having the same issue on Windows 7 which never got resolved but now on Windows 10, the Administrator Username is the MS Windows Admin account. In my case, it was a different email than my registered email with Avid.

Anyway, in case someone else has the same issue.
