Windows 10: Administrator approval required for installation

ArmanSchwarz · Oct 13, 2019

When I go to the Microsoft store and try to install a game (for example "Age of Empires Definitive Edition") I see a grayed out "Install" button.

I am logged in using an administrator account. What do I do now?

download doesn't start for apps that require administrator approval

Tried to install gamepass games from microsoft store and xbox pc beta but I get an error for every app that require administrator approval.

I logged in with a microsoft account. I have already tried to reset my laptop, reset the store as well (wsreset) and logged in as administrator (with the command line). During the latter, the download started but I got an error message after seconds).

Any ideas? I cannot use another microsoft account as mine is tied with game pass ultimate!

Why does Administrator approval pop-up?

I don't know what setting I've changed to make this popup requiring password for software install. Before the popup required a Yes or No to install, not Administrator password. I am the owner, administrator & the only user on this PC.

How do I fix this?
