Windows 10: Psqlodbc - Installing driver but requires administration login

HiI have a licensed Microsoft account, and one of my new users are trying to install Psqlodbc driver on a computer previously used by someone else. Before the install happens it is asking for administration login. He has tried his login details, as well as the main login for the Microsoft account but it will not work. He is able to login and access all the Microsoft apps with his login details but he cant seem to allow any changes to be made to his computer. We have not experienced this with any of our other users. He has restarted the computer but still not luck. Do you have any adv

:)

Hi Michael,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

The issue could be if the drivers are either not updated or get corrupted. So, I would suggest you to update the display drivers and see if it helps you to fix the issue.

  Install optional updates from the left results.

  When the Windows Update control panel opens, click on “Check for Updates” on the top left corner to receive a fresh list of updates.
