Prompting for Admin cred UAC for FortiClient VPN Update on end user devices.

[Sanjeev1]

Hi All,

When Fortinet releases a software update, for the FortiClient VPN, the end users can’t install it because it asks for Admin credentials.

They are prompted with a UAC window which they cannot bypass since it requires them to be local administrators which we do not want them to be because of security concerns.

Need some quick assistance.

Thank you,

#Forticlient VPN
