Having Problems Updating to Windows11 22623.741/746
What's more, I can't perform a clean boot due to UAC limit. When I type in "msconfig.exe", UAC required an approval from administrator account, which was exactly the account I'm lack of in my laptop.
your configuration has been changed, so this is unusual because you should know the administrator password if it was previously active, and it was you who was the administrator.
SFC - scan can you do?

Forgot to give admin rights to an account in Win 11 - Microsoft Community Hub
This is a new discussion with a similar problem, but there is no answer yet.

There seems no way to conduct this process, because after my account was switch to the standard one, Windows Insider Program this option was no longer appeared in Windows Update tag
Do you mean that I just tried to sign in my Microsoft account to Insider Program or do you mean let me install an Insider system then?
(PS1:My laptop didn't meet the requirement, Windows Insider Program would never ask me to sign in, only tell me that I need to return back to Windows10 for security reason)
(PS2:Remember where this blog started from? It's from the updating issue of Insider System, by I sent this reply, the latest version 22623.870 reported the same code 0×800F0922 once again, and I can't even switch back to RP channel due to UAC limit)

I wonder what would happen if you signed in with your Microsoft account on this PC to the insider program?
Now the system has your security credentials so there is a chance of success.
- Eason_C1210Oct 23, 2022Brass Contributor**bleep**, it can't function without administrator's rights.
May I ask you which version is your computer in now? Is it 22623 or even higher.
Since the recovery can't run without administrator, it seemed that standard account is only provided with the most basic function in Windows11 and even you can't install or uninstall any app on it.
What else can you offer me? I'm terribly disappointed about this issue! (This negative emotion isn't for you, OK? You've always did a great job to provide me any help you could imagine) - DeletedOct 23, 2022
This is not a system tool (in the settings where there is Update security and recovery), but for this you do not need administrator rights, but I'm not sure, sorry I've always been an administrator, never a user without permissions.
- Eason_C1210Oct 23, 2022Brass ContributorThanks a lot, the full scan is now in process now.
But for the additional tool. can you describe it more specifically so that I may download it and try to run it without administrator's approval. - DeletedOct 23, 2022
This is good, run additional tools to solve update problems and try to update , you can do a full scan with defender beforehand, maybe it will restore the correct registers worth a try
Good luck!

Yes, from Windows Security, I can confirm that my Microsoft account has successfully log in to my Windows and is now functioning as planned.
But somehow, UAC limit didn't disappear and it remained still that some part of functions still can't work out.
(PS: Due to personal information privacy, I have hide my account address to ensure my privacy security)

Check again: open the Windows Defender service (account and login protection) see if you are logged in correctly there,
If you're still in a local account, you won't be logged in there and the security doesn't have the correct credentials.

Yes, you must have administrator privileges to run SFC.
I always use a password, so, I don't know how to fix it'
There are 900,000 Members in MTC maybe someone will help you.
- Eason_C1210Oct 23, 2022Brass ContributorI am the previous administrator, but I never set a password for my administrator account since I'm kind of lazy to type in the password every time I turn on my laptop, so when I configure my account, I click "the password will never overdue" (The same meaning, translated from Chinese), so I can hardly remember whether I have set any password for my administrator account.
But for SFC and DISM command, Windows Terminal constantly informed that to use these tools, it need elevated command (I'm not sure whether this means administration required)
Please help me run SFC and DISM command, perhaps it would help!
